A slim novel dealing with the memories and sense of loss experienced by a mother and her three daughters. Fairly dense, sometimes illuminating, stream-of-consciousness writing, the characters are difficult to engage with. Successfully creates the feeling of a presence of the absent brother for whom they are all grieving in very different ways. Ultimately not entirely successful - the endless interior dialogues can be exhausting and somewhat relentless - but definitely a writer whose work I want to explore further. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
From the 'stunningly talented' author of Pig Tales and Breathing Underwater comes a new novel about a family haunted by their past. An exploration of loss and guilt, A Brief Stay with the Living is the story of a mother and her three grow-up daughters. Jeanne, the eldest, has moved to Argentina with her husband; Anne lives alone in Paris, but is in the throes of an unhappy affair with a married man; and Nore, the youngest, is in her first year at university but still living at home. Although not close, all four women are drawn together by an incident from their past - a secret that the story only gradually reveals. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
