Recenzii

"Enright deals beautifully with the modern world ... blood, guts, and heart-stopping beauty" Independent "At the top of her form, she is remarkable" -- Jane Shilling The Times "Shockingly beautiful and painfully funny" Observer "The quality of the writing should help to explain Enright's having won the 2007 Man Booker Prize ... single lines and paragraphs are so well crafted, with such salty, pleasantly brutal sensibility, that these stories function like beguiling advertisements for Enright's novels. After sampling Taking Pictures, those who, like me, have not yet read The Gathering will likely move her Man Booker winner nearer to the top of the pile beside the bed" -- Lionel Shriver Daily Telegraph "She's a sphinx, an alchemist, a literary witch who sticks a spell on you. Angela Carter and Ali Smith can do this too... buy it, read it, it isn't realism, it's music" Scotsman

Acclaim for the internationally bestselling The Gathering: "Such incredible sentences . . . it's unlikely you'll find a more precisely rendered depiction of the hypocrisy, minor hysterics, and comforting ritual of an Irish wake."-- "Globe and Mail" "Enright is a daring writer -- witty, original and inventive. . . . Utterly compelling." -- "Daily Mail" "Reckless intelligence, savage humor, slow revelation, no consolation: Anne Enright's fiction is jet dark -- but how it glitters." -- "New York Times Book Review" "A lyrical meditation on memory and connectedness . . . dreamy . . . wise. . . . Like Ali Smith, Enright is an original." -- "Kirkus Reviews" (starred review)
"From the Hardcover edition."
