The Black Snow

Autor Paul Lynch
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 mar 2015
When his byre - and the forty-three cows within it - goes up in flames, Barnabas Kane asks the rural community for help to get his family back on their feet, yet all his requests yield are suspicion and sanctimony. Humiliated, Barnabas grows ever more indignant. Before long this anger makes its mark on an innocent, and toil turns to tragedy.

Recenzii

"A novel in which sentence after sentence comes so beautifully alive in all the fullness of its diction and meaning that most other contemporary Irish fiction looks sheepish by comparison. Lynch's language is rough-hewn and yet beautifully lyrical....I could scarcely read more than a few pages at a time without having to stop and contemplate quitting the writing of fiction myself."
Alan Cheuse, NPR
"The Black Snowis a staggeringly beautiful book. Immensely powerful, but subtly so. I was mesmerized by it. I read it in one go, but I'll go back to it for sure."
--Kevin Powers, author ofThe Yellow BirdsandLetter Composed During a Lull in the Fighting
"A brilliant, hypnotic book. You will lose yourself in the sounds and rhythms-Lynch makes the page sing like the old masters."
--Philipp Meyer, author ofThe Son
"A stunning tale of retribution and disintegration.... at once so starkly brutal and so beautiful that it is impossible to look away."
-Booklist
"A haunting novel from a writer with a gift for language and character.... Lynch has a Seamus Heaney ear for the sights and sounds of rural life." --Kirkus Reviews
"Lynch establishes himself as one of his generation's very finest novelists.The Black Snowis a dark, mesmerizing study in obsession, despair, and secrets too long held."
--Ron Rash, author ofThe Cove
"Lynch's beautifully intertwined emotional and physical landscapes have a timelessness.... The story gathers momentum scene by scene."
--Publishers Weekly
"Some of the most beautiful writing I have ever read. Vivid, unsettling and intensely enjoyable."—Donal Ryan,Booker-nominated author ofThe Spinning Heart
