Luminously written page-turningly enjoyable, this is a profound novel about love from a highly regarded, Pulitzer-winning novelist Sunday Times Walking through Central Park, Barrett Meeks sees a translucent light in the sky that regards him in a distinctly godlike way. Barrett doesnt believe in visions or in God but he cant deny what hes seen. In nearby Brooklyn, Tyler, Barretts older brother, is trying and failing to write a wedding song for Beth, his wife-to-be, who is seriously ill. Barrett turns unexpectedly to religion, while Tyler grows convinced that only drugs can release his creative powers. The Snow Queen, beautiful and heartbreaking, comic and tragic, proves again that Cunningham is one of the great novelists of his generation.

Recensioner i media

'Clean and sharp as an ice crystal; a brief but profound and poetic meditation on love, death and compassion from a master craftsman of language' Observer Michael Cunninghams resonant new novel . . . is arguably [his] most original and emotionally piercing book to date New York Times The pursuit of transcendence in all kinds of forms music, drugs, a McQueen minidress, and those things less tangible but no less powerfully felt drives Michael Cunningham's best novel in more than a decade Vogue
