Since We Fell de Dennis Lehane

Since We Fell

Autor Dennis Lehane
en Limba Engleză Paperback – feb 2020

O cădere nervoasă în direct. Un ecran negru. O carieră de jurnalist distrusă sub ochii a milioane de spectatori. Remarcăm cum Dennis Lehane construiește premisa volumului Since We Fell nu pe o acțiune externă violentă, ci pe prăbușirea interioară a lui Rachel Childs. Retrasă între pereții propriei case, Rachel crede că a găsit siguranța într-o căsnicie perfectă. Dar ploaia spală aparențele. O întâlnire neprevăzută pe stradă declanșează un efect de domino care transformă confortul domestic într-o capcană paranoică. Subliniem precizia cu care autorul disecă minciuna: când soțul ideal devine un străin, unde se termină realitatea și unde începe nebunia? Atmosfera te trimite cu gândul la Breakdown de Jonathan Kellerman, deși focalizarea lui Lehane pe trauma transformată în supraviețuire marchează o voce proprie, mult mai viscerală. Dacă în Small Mercies autorul explora tensiunile sociale, aici se scufundă în abisul psihologic, amintind de complexitatea din Shutter Island. Reținem ritmul alert, sacadat, care oglindește panica personajului. Nu este doar un roman polițist, ci o explorare brutală a identității. Conspirația în care Rachel este atrasă forțat nu are doar mize externe, ci îi cere să-și confrunte cele mai adânci temeri. Stilul este sobru, sofisticat, lipsit de artificii inutile, lăsând întunericul să se prelingă direct din pagină.

Descriere scurtă

“Endlessly surprising . . . [A] twisty tale.”
—Wall Street Journal
After a very public mental breakdown, Rachel Childs, once a tenacious, globe-trotting journalist, now lives as a virtual shut-in. In all other respects, however, she enjoys an ideal life with an ideal husband. Until a chance encounter on a rainy afternoon causes that ideal life to fray. As does Rachel’s marriage. As does Rachel herself. Sucked into a conspiracy thick with deception, violence, and possibly madness, Rachel must find the strength within herself to conquer unimaginable fears and mind-altering truths.
“A sleek thriller . . . Well-crafted suspense.”
—Tampa Bay Times
 
“Terrific . . . Lehane is the master.”
—Gillian Flynn
 
“A pleasantly twisted character study and a love story.”
—Washington Post

Recenzii

“[Lehane] remains one of the great, diabolical thriller kings who seems intimately acquainted with darkness and can make it seep from the page.” — New York Times
“A pleasantly twisted character study and a love story. . . . Lehane is in command of what he’s doing.” — Washington Post
“A pleasantly twisted character study and a love story. . . . Lehane is in command of what he’s doing.” — Tampa Bay Times
“Lehane has written two books-one, an insightful examination of the search for identity and belonging, and two, a thriller that constantly leaves you guessing-and then smashed them together into one terrific read.” — Gillian Flynn
“A riveting exercise in psychological suspense.” — Providence Journal
“Endlessly surprising. . . . [A] twisty tale.” — Wall Street Journal
“Lehane writes expert, compelling thrillers. . . . He’s one of the game changers who smashed the imaginary boundary between genre and literature, proving that we can have the best of both at once.” — Tana French, Washington Post
“Make no mistake, Since We Fell is crime fiction, filled with con men, murder, greed and revenge. But the love story gives this novel its heart.” — Associated Press
“[Lehane’s] work always combines pulp thrills with literary heart and sophistication.” — Entertainment Weekly
“The most thrilling novel I’ll read all year. Since We Fell is simmering with emotion, menace, and humor. I loved it.” — Kate Atkinson
“Complex, tense, compelling, and an emotional and strategic hall of mirrors, where nothing is what it seems—but I would follow Dennis Lehane anywhere.” — Lee Child
“Another winner from the author of Mystic River. . . . A raucous mix of lust, greed, and betrayal.” — AARP Magazine
“The surfeit of plot twists and emotional baggage are buoyed by Lehane’s hard-boiled lyricism and peerless feel for New England noir.” — USA Today
“One doesn’t ‘read’ Since We Fell so much as plunge and tumble through its pages like a raft in white water. A sweet bullet of a book.” — Richard Price
“Once you pick up a Dennis Lehane novel, you’re hooked. It’s just that simple. Since We Fell is a complex, compelling, page-turner of a novel from a master storyteller at the top of his game.” — Kristin Hannah
“[Since We Fell] should have crime fiction fans busting out the bottle rockets and champagne. . . . It’s impossible not to succumb.” — Lithub
“With sharply acute characterization, this is classic Lehane.” — The Guardian

How can she feel certain that she ever knew him?

And was she right to ever trust him?
