Family And Friends

Autor Anita Brookner
en Limba Engleză Paperback – iun 2016
'Sofka gazes ahead, with her family's future before her . . .'
Sofka Dorn, widowed matriarch of a prosperous German Jewish family living in England, rules her four children with an exacting hand. Frederick, the eldest son, is a disgracefully charming 'ladies' man, and like his flirtatious sister, Betty, is adored and indulged by his mother. Alfred and Mimi, both steady and solitary, are a disappointment to Sofka, who values strength and boldness of spirit. But, as their story unfolds, it becomes clear that the lives each must live and the times each must endure will change them in ways even Sofka could never have imagined.

Recenzii

How can anything be so funny and so sad both at once? Every sentence is an object lesson in compression and wit.
Dazzling.
Works so brilliantly.
Brookner has a merciless comic gift.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
In an ambitious departure from her usual form, Anita Brookner expands her canvas in FAMILY AND FRIENDS to create a richly textured novel about the life of a wealthy Jewish family in London, centering upon the generation that came to maturity between the two World Wars. "Brookner works a spell on the reader; being under it is both an education and a delight".--WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD.
