Somewhere Else

Autor Charles Rangeley-Wilson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2005
In fourteen beautifully crafted stories, the author takes us fly-fishing around the world, from Canadian forests to upland Croatia, from Scottish islands to London suburbs. This darkly humorous collection is destined to become, like Thomas McGuane’s The Longest Silence, a classic of the genre.

Recenzii

"It's the search for poetry and meaning that moves me the most... [This is]a nice, idiosyncratic work that gave me much enjoyment" -- Thomas McGuane "At last, some fishing stories with wit, dialogue and characterisation in them. Deft, laconic, and thrilling in places, Charles' wide-ranging debut is a welcome antidote to the Podsnappery of much of the sport's literature: I reckon you could enjoy this book even if you had never picked up a rod" -- David Profumo, Author Of Sea Music "An intense, round-the-world fly-fishing adventure which sucks you in from first page to last... A fine collection of short stories" Scotland on Sunday
