'A marvellously engrossing journey, studded with ideas and lyrical treats' The Times

______________________________________

In 1919, pioneering journalist Emily Ehrlich watches as two young airmen emerge from the carnage of World War One to pilot the very first non-stop transatlantic flight from Newfoundland to the west of Ireland. In 1845 Frederick Douglass, a Black American slave, lands in Ireland to champion ideas of democracy and freedom, only to find a famine unfurling at his feet. And in 1998 Senator George Mitchell criss-crosses the ocean in search of an elusive Irish peace.

Stitching these stories intricately together, Colum McCann sets out to explore the fine line between what is real and what is imagined, and the tangled skein of connections that make up our lives.

Recenzii

It is, simply, perfect
Majestic
Quite simply one of the best, most sustained pieces of fiction I've read in some time ... A novel of true resonance and power
His vivid, reactive and heartfelt fiction lives and breathes, sighs and weeps
Beautifully hypnotic . Those who can't see the point of historical novels will find their answer here
A very gifted, charming writer; in full, rhapsodic-onrush mode, he is hard to resist
Beautifully poignant
McCann is no stranger to literary prizes - but if I were him, I'd start clearing my mantelpiece for a few more
