Blue Light: And Starting Over
Autor John Fraseren Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2013
We may like to imagine we know what the end of the world will be like - and maybe it will not be dissimilar to our own individual ends. "Blue Light" shows what it's like, the running down, the onset of rigor mortis, the new life sprouting, notwithstanding.
Living for ever may not be too bad - but do we really want it? When the world has ended, how attractive is rebirth, or resurrection? "Starting Over" may mean we have to piece a whole new world together - just using the ruins of the past.

Notă biografică
John Fraser lives near Rome. Previously, he worked in England and Canada. Of Fraser's fiction the Whitbread Award winning poet John Fuller has written: 'One of the most extraordinary publishing events of the past few years has been the rapid, indeed insistent, appearance of the novels of John Fraser. There are few parallels in literary history to this almost simultaneous and largely belated appearance of a mature ¿uvre, sprung like Athena from Zeus's forehead; and the novels in themselves are extraordinary. I can think of nothing much like them in fiction. Fraser maintains a masterfully ironic distance from the extreme conditions in which his characters find themselves. There are strikingly beautiful descriptions, veiled allusions to rooted traditions, unlikely events half-glimpsed, abrupted narratives, surreal but somehow apposite social customs.'
