The Living Sea of Waking Dreams - Flanagan Richard - książka
Producent: Vintage
The Times describes it as 'striking...brilliantly done'. This novel, a captivating work from Booker Prize-winning author Richard Flanagan, presents an emotionally powerful and astonishing story. Anna is dealing with her elderly mother's impending death, as her three children prolong her life out of compassion. Her mother begins to mentally escape through her hospital window, experiencing both terrifying and delightful visions. Anna starts to experience her own mysterious vanishings, beginning with her finger, followed by her knee. These occurrences make her realize that others around her are disappearing too, though it goes unnoticed by everyone else. While Anna is dedicated to keeping her mother alive, she is also drawn to the sense of escape the window provides. This leads her, and the reader, into an intricately beautiful tale centered on themes of hope, love, and the presence of orange-bellied parrots. The Washington Post hails Richard Flanagan as 'one of our greatest living novelists'.
