Rituals
Traducere de Adrienne Dixon Autor Cees Nooteboom Introducere de A.S. BYATTen Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 iul 2013
In Rituals, Amsterdam of the fifties, sixties and seventies is viewed from the perspective of the capricious Inni Wintrop. An unintentional suicide survivor, the unexpected gift of life returned lends him the curiousity, and impartiality, to survey others' lives and rountines. Inni's opposite, the one-eyed downhill skier Arnold Taads measures his life by the clock, while his disowned son Philip follows Japanese rituals which themselves seem to render his existence meaningless.
A novel for those who seek to unravel our mysterious, apparently directionless lives...

Recenzii
'Sharp, elegant prose ... It recalls, in tone, Vladimir Nabokov. The language is, by turns, delicately allusive and rich, even ripely comic' D.J. Enright, T.L.S.
'Should appeal to anyone who likes Italo Calvino or Paul Auster' Michael Dirda, Washington Times.
