Public Library and Other Stories: Hamish Hamilton

Autor Ali Smith
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 noi 2015
Why are books so very powerful?
What do the books we've read over our lives - our own personal libraries - make of us?
What does the unravelling of our tradition of public libraries, so hard-won but now in jeopardy, say about us?
The stories in Ali Smith's new collection are about what we do with books and what they do with us: how they travel with us; how they shock us, change us, challenge us, banish time while making us older, wiser and ageless all at once; how they remind us to pay attention to the world we make.

Recenzii

Smith is dazzling in her daring. Sheer inventive power
Ali Smith is a one-off. Her imagination and originality make her one of the most exciting novelists of her generation
In Ali Smith we have a writer whose dazzling sophistication will surely be celebrated, studied and argues over hundreds of years after we're gone
Smith's world is incredibly generous - it's a place where all sorts of stories and human connections are possible
