Notă biografică
"Julia Lindqvist, a woman unhappily married to a famous Swedish playwright, leaves her husband to begin a passionate affair with a female tailor named Eve. The pair run away and settle in the more liberal haven of Vienna, where they fall in love, navigate the challenges of their new-found independence, and find community in the city's bohemian Jewish quarter. But Julia's yearning for a child throws their fragile happiness into chaos. Meanwhile, Ada Bauer's wealthy industrialist family have sent her to Dr. Freud in the hope that he can cure her mutism - and do so without a scandal. But help will son come for Ada from an unexpected place, changing many lives irrevocably. Set in Vienna from 1910 to 1946, All of You Every Single One is an atmospheric, original, and deeply moving novel about family, freedom, and how true love might survive impossible odds. Through the lives of her queer characters, and against the changing backdrop of one of the greatest cities of the age, Beatrice Hitchman creates an intensely poignant portrait of life and love on the fringes of history." -- jacket flap.
Recenzii
A gorgeous trip across time and identity, through war and fascism, to show how people make new families and find ways to love each other.
For all its big themes, this novel never stops being tender. Hitchman has beautifully captured the ebb and flow of long-term relationships, from first lust, to the pathos of familiarity ... gorgeously written on every single page.
The story flows with epic majesty... a rich and dynamic narrative expertly told; authentic characters skilfully shaped with genuine empathy; and beautifully crafted historical descriptions written with superb grace.
With the delicacy and beauty of Flaubert, Hitchman tells the exquisite story of two women trying to make a life together in wartime Austria, and all the love, friendship and danger that implies.
Praise for Petite Mort: 'Sumptuously set, elegantly written, evocative and quietly subversive'
The atmosphere is rich with sumptuous details ... striking ... This clever debut indicates a bright future for its author.
Praise for Petite Mort: 'An astonishingly assured debut novel ... an expertly crafted story.'
There's a touch of Angela Carter about Beatrice Hitchman's beguiling debut - a sly, erotic thriller concerned with doubleness and duplicity.
Praise for Petite Mort: 'An impressive and enjoyable debut: nimble, deft and wrapped luxuriously in the velveteen glamour of the movies.'
Compelling ... Hitchman's confident debut is a story about relationships and the risks we take to get what we want. Universal themes, beautifully explored.
Sumptuous ... part Moulin Rouge, part Alfred Hitchcock
Vienna is described in richly atmospheric, beautifully evocative language ... Hitchman's characters are engaging, despite their many flaws, and her storytelling engrossing.
An intertwined and ever-weaving story about queer people living - or surviving - in 1900s Vienna . . .It's a novel about found family, the consequences of decisions, and how far we'll go for love - especially in an age of oppression.
A gorgeous and deeply moving novel... Hitchman takes readers on an atmospheric and unforgettable journey.
A touching and atmospheric ode to queer characters and their struggles during such a poignant time in history...we can guarantee you won't put this one down until it's finished.
With a masterful eye for historical detail, Beatrice Hitchman's ambitious new novel plunges us headfirst into the bohemian world of Vienna's early 20th century golden age .... All of You Every Single One shines as a beautiful, poignant, and deeply felt tale of holding on to the love of the chosen families we create, even in the most adverse of historical circumstances.
Engrossing ... Hitchman excels at capturing both the liberating permissiveness of turn-of-the-century Vienna and the city's paralyzing fear after Hitler's 1938 annexation of Austria.
Populated with rich and vibrant characters, All of You Every Single One is a stellar work that blends the best of history and fiction.
Beatrice Hitchman's writing is beautiful from the start... The little community that built up around them caught me by the heart at once,
An absorbing novel of love and lust and found family
