Beskrivning
''A gifted and determined stylist, Colum McCann seems to have taken a vow never to write a dull line'' New York Times Book Review
''Orwell would have been proud to journey with a writer as good as Colum McCann'' Irish Sunday Independent
______________________
An ageing nun is tracked to ground by her sister; a garrulous beautician must lay out the corpse of a loved one.
These are eloquent tales of exile and displacement, of characters always in search of a way back home or of a way to leave it. Mischievous, assured and versatile, Colum McCann''s collection of short stories marks him out as one of our best contemporary writers.
