Produktbeschreibung
Winner of the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature Winner of the "Sunday Independent" Newcomer of the Year AwardShort-listed for the Costa First Novel Award Long-listed for the Guardian First Book Award, Readers ChoiceLong-listed for the Warwick Prize for Writing Long-listed for the Edinburgh First Book Award Unbearably poignant and beautifully told. Eimear McBride, author of "A Girl Is a Half-formed Thing" A tour de force ... No writer since J.M. Coetzee or Cormac McCarthy has written about an animal with such intensity ... At its heart is a touching and inspiriting sense of empathy, that rarest but most human of traits. Boundaries melt, other hearts become knowable ... This book is a stunning and wonderful achievement by a writer touched by greatness. Joseph O Connor, the" Irish Times" In a relentlessly inventive language that, it seems, can maneuver anywhere and describe anything, Baume s story of a man and his dog examines and elegizes the myriad strange, ramshackle, and ephemeral worlds locked deep inside the world. An exceptional, startling, and original book. Colin Barrett, author of "Young Skins" Powerful, heartbreaking, told with great control. The writing is superb ... I had an image of all language standing to attention, eager to serve this writer. Mary Costello, author of "Academy Street" This book is like a flame in daylight: beautiful and unexpected. It packs a big effect for something that seems so slight, and almost hard to see. Anne Enright "
