______________________
An ageing nun is tracked to ground by her sister; a garrulous beautician must lay out the corpse of a loved one.

These are eloquent tales of exile and displacement, of characters always in search of a way back home or of a way to leave it. Mischievous, assured and versatile, Colum McCann's collection of short stories marks him out as one of our best contemporary writers.

Recenzii

Orwell would have been proud to journey with a writer as good as Colum McCann
A mesmeric find
His stories are the work of a most vivid imagination, perpetually finding new shapes and ways of examining the world
Rich, powerful stories that place McCann at the front ranks of contemporary Irish writers
Beautiful . These well-made stories, written with fierce beauty, are sure of their effect and power
There is magic in this McCann, and he brings to each page a special sorcery with the voices he conjures . No one can read through and not emerge feeling changed, somehow ennobled by it
