I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning
Autor Keiran Goddarden Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 feb 2024
Told from the alternating perspectives of five friends who grew up together on the same council estate, I See Buildings Fall like Lightning asks what happens when all the things we expect from our lives end up ... not happening.
Only Rian has made it out of the estate and moved away to another city, but his money doesn't stop him clinging to a vision of the past that is quickly slipping away. Oli is fading by the day, drinking and snorting his way through the endless boredom. Things are looking up for Conor, but he is never too far away from tipping things back into chaos. Patrick and Shiv are as in love as ever, always the calm in the eye of the storm, but even they are rocked when old secrets begin to open new wounds.
Bold, ambitious, and stylistically striking, I See Buildings Fall like Lightning lays bare the economic, psychological and spiritual impact of poverty, explores the redeeming and transforming beauty of friendship and examines the true limits of hope and forgiveness.
