Brooklyn de Colm Tóibín

Brooklyn: Penguin Essentials

Autor Colm Tóibín
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 iun 2018
Colm Toibin's Brooklyn is a devastating story of love, loss and one woman's terrible choice between duty and personal freedom.

It is Ireland in the early 1950s and for Eilis Lacey, as for so many young Irish girls, opportunities are scarce. So when her sister arranges for her to emigrate to New York, Eilis knows she must go, leaving behind her family and her home for the first time.

Arriving in a crowded lodging house in Brooklyn, Eilis can only be reminded of what she has sacrificed. She is far from home - and homesick. And just as she takes tentative steps towards friendship, and perhaps something more, Eilis receives news which sends her back to Ireland. There she will be confronted by a terrible dilemma - a devastating choice between duty and one great love.

'A work of such skill, understatement and sly jewelled merriment could haunt your life' Ali Smith TLS, Books of the Year

Recenzii

With this elating and humane novel, Colm Tóibín has produced a masterwork
The most compelling and moving portrait of a young woman I have read in a long time
A work of such skill, understatement and sly jewelled merriment could haunt your life
Suffused with humane depth, funny, affecting, deftly plotted ... a novel of magnificent accomplishment
Brooklyn moved me more than any other book this year
A beautifully crafted work that transformed ordinary lives into something extraordinary
No book this year gave me greater pleasure
Not a sentence or a thought out of place. It takes over as his finest ficiton to date
Remarkable freshness and immediacy ... with a lovely comedic lightness
A lovely, thoughtful book ... alive with authentic detail, moved along by the ripples of affection and doubt that shape any life: a novel that offers the reader serious pleasure
Tremendously moving and powerful
Full of sly fun, lovely comic observation and an almost tangible pleasure in storytelling
Refreshingly authentic . . . Eilis is so vivid it's difficult to believe she did not actually exist
