Neil Jordan

The Dream of a Beast (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The man leads a seemingly conventional life. Every morning he leaves his suburban house, and his wife and young daughter, walking past the hissing lawn-sprinklers to the station where people wait for trains that hardly ever come. But the world around him is changing. The summer's heat is so intense that the pavements begin to crack. Railway lines swell and buckle. And now the man realises that he is changing too . . .

Full of extraordinary images, The Dream of a Beast is a vision of the beast that perhaps lies inside us all. Its power lingers long beyond its final pages.
