Beatlebone

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 oct 2016

A searing, surreal novel that blends fantasy and reality and Beatles fandom from one of literature s most striking contemporary voices, author of the international sensation "City of Bohane"
It is 1978, and John Lennon has escaped New York City to try to find the island off the west coast of Ireland he bought eleven years prior. Leaving behind domesticity, his approaching forties, his inability to create, and his memories of his parents, he sets off to calm his unquiet soul in the comfortable silence of isolation. But when he puts himself in the hands of a shape-shifting driver full of Irish charm and dark whimsy, what ensues can only be termed a magical mystery tour.
" Beatlebone" is a tour de force of language and literary imagination that marries the most improbable elements to the most striking effect. It isa book that only Kevin Barry would attempt, letalone succeed in pulling off a Hibernian high wire act of courage, nerve, and great beauty.
