The Mountain Can Wait

Autor Sarah Leipciger
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 mar 2016
Tom Berry is a hunter, a man who would be most content living out his days in the wilderness with just enough ammunition and kerosene to last the winter. A single father, he has raised his children with care and quiet determination, but when his son Curtis gets into trouble with the law and goes on the run, Tom discovers that might not have been enough.

Recenzii

The heart of this story is the love between father and son, and the backdrop is spectacular; Leipciger's descriptions of the scenery are splendid and intensely evocative
A deft and beautiful novel about all that is untameable and wild, in both the landscape and in ourselves
Clear and beautiful, like swimming in a mountain lake
A tragedy about a silent father and a wounded son... rigorous beauty
THE MOUNTAIN CAN WAIT is a taut, psychologically gripping novel populated by original characters constantly at battle with nature, family, society, and themselves. This is a book that kept me up at night. Leipciger has Margaret Atwood's rare flair for crafting an intelligent and suspenseful novel
The Mountain Can Wait is as haunting, wild and compelling as the landscape it describes
Haunting and beautiful
Leipciger beautifully captures the tender and mercurial relationship between father and son. These are characters you care about, flawed and haunted, existing in the hard yet undeniably radiant world of the Canadian mountains
Despite being a first novel, the author already displays a powerful facility with language, setting, and character that in future work will undoubtedly make her a master
Leipciger beautifully captures the volatile relationship between father and son
A hauntingly brilliant tale of a father searching for his lost son
It's a mesmerising story of misunderstandings set against the beautiful backdrop of the Canadian woods, poetically described by Leipciger
Throughout this simple, stirring story she writes with great poignancy and invites the reader into a colourfully rendered world of looming trees, ominous mountains and natural hazards
