Small Hours: the spellbinding new novel from the author of ISAAC AND THE EGG
Autor Bobby Palmeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 mar 2024
The eagerly awaited new novel from Bobby Palmer, author of the critically acclaimed debut Isaac and the Egg.
-
If you stood before sunrise in this wild old place, looking through the trees into the garden...
You'd see a father and son, a fox standing between them.
You wouldn't know that Jack has returned from the city, still determined to be the opposite of his father. Or that Gerry would rather talk to animals than this angry man back under his roof.
You wouldn't imagine that neither is quite who the other remembers. That someone irreplaceable is missing. That one conversation might change everything.
If you saw them in the small hours, you'd begin to piece together their story. It's about connection and belonging - and how the world comes alive when you stop to take it in.

Descriere
'Beautiful' KATE SAWYER
'A triumph' JENNIE GODFREY
The eagerly awaited new novel from Bobby Palmer, author of the critically acclaimed debut Isaac and the Egg.
If you stood before sunrise in this wild old place, looking through the trees into the garden, here's what you'd see:
A father and son, a fox standing between them.
Jack, home for the first time in years, still determined to be the opposite of his father.
Gerry, who would rather talk to animals than the angry man back under his roof.
Everything that follows is because of the fox, and because Jack's mother is missing. It spans generations of big dreams and lost time, unexpected connections and things falling apart, great wide worlds and the moments that define us.
If you met them in the small hours, you'd begin to piece together their story.

Recenzii
I devoured this in forty-eight hours, it being about my very favourite reading topic: dysfunctional families and the many ways in which they can both fracture and heal. Its connection to the natural world makes this extra-special and almost poetic. A triumph
Lyrical and evocative, Small Hours is a book like no other, a beautiful testament to the importance of family and what it's truly like to be human
