Leseprobe
- Inhalt:
- A seventeen-year-old boy visits his estranged mother on Boxing Day in a grey seaside town; a university lecturer falls in with a group of older men who inhabit a very different world while trying to learn how to swim; a detective breaks into his former home to spy on his estranged family; a couple reflect on twenty-five years of marriage under the Northern Lights; and an old man volunteering in a charity shop forms a tender bond with a young single mother. Bringing together deeply affecting stories exploring masculinity, loneliness, isolation, and longing, Gods and Angels is a masterful collection from one of Ireland's finest writers.
- David Park has written nine previous books including The Big Snow, The Truth Commissioner, The Light of Amsterdam (shortlisted for the 2014 International IMPAC Prize), and, most recently, The Poets' Wives (selected as Belfast's One City One Book read). He has won the Authors' Club First Novel Award, the Bass Ireland Arts Award for Literature, the Ewart-Biggs Memorial Prize, the American Ireland Fund Literary Award, and, three times, the University of Ulster's McCrea Literary Award. He lives in County Down, Northern Ireland.
