Köp båda 2 för 277 krA tender, wistful, often profound story about a deteriorating romance between two twentysomething men... Lo-fi and intimate * Sunday Times * Funny and moving... Memorial confirms Washington as a writer not just to watch, but to read now * The Times * A masterclass in empathy... Washington transforms revelations into cliff-hangers, like Elena Ferrante. He writes layered sex scenes, like Garth Greenwell * Guardian * A tender and moving story about the ties that bind us to those we love, sometimes against our better judgment or our strongest will * The Telegraph * Washington is a technically dazzling writer * Alan Hollinghurst, New York Review of Books * A triumph * Paul Bailey, Literary Review * Dazzling... With crackling dialogue and gimlet-eyed humour, Washington paints a vivid, poignant portrait of how love, romantic and familial, is weathered and ultimately deepened by time * Esquire * A fresh, vibrant love story that interweaves race, queerness, nationality, family, and intimacy with narrative ease * Vogue * Brilliantly details the smallest moments that mean the absolute most, the heartbreakingly human limitations of how we love one another * Kiley Reid, author of Such a Fun Age * Memorial casts a fresh take on the American family that becomes truer because of its disparate origins, the queerness of its genesis, and the buoyed wonder it finds in surviving grief and loss towards the rare and forgiving ground of difficult, hard-won love. * Ocean Vuong, author of On Earth Were Briefly Gorgeous * A tour de force, truly unlike anything I've read before. Bryan Washington's take on love, family, and responsibility is as complicated and true as life itself. I can't stop thinking about it. * Ann Patchett, author of Bel Canto * Stunning. Everything happening in Memorial is so intimate, sensual, and wise. I love this book. * Tommy Orange, author of There There * A true page-turner. I was entranced. * Jacqueline Woodson, author of Another Brooklyn * Made me think about the nature of love, and family, and anger, and grief, and love again. * Jasmine Guillory, author of The Proposal * Bryan Washington is an expert in illuminating the way we love. It is a beautiful heartbreak. * Mira Jacob, author of Good Talk * It is about everything that matters in life. * Katie Kitamura, author of A Separation * Wryly funny, gently devastating * Entertainment Weekly * A beautiful, unusual examination of the difference between love and care, and what happens when they merge * Washington Post * This book is so poignant and beautiful, asking questions about what it means to live a life and what it means to love * LitHub * Implicit in a book about changing relationships and titled Memorial is the question of what is being preserved. The book preserves Houston and Osaka. It preserves the feeling of being young and lost. It preserves the food that gives us comfort and nourishment and purpose. * The New York Times * Wonderfully irreverent and heart-meltingly tender * Oprah Magazine * A very different kind of love story... Washington's deeply touching (and deeply funny) look at love, sex, family, grief, and the ways in which we take care of each other is a revelation, a reminder of how powerful a novel can be * Refinery29 * Bryan Washington writes some of contemporary fiction's most tender stories... Queer love, family dynamics, Houston settings, and cooking... the young writer has brilliantly united them all in his new novel * New York Observer * Big-hearted and moving * Harper's Bazaar * Bryan Washington writes quiet. His characters methodically chop cabbage, or slide silently from room to room. Then, bam. A quick, elliptical conversation will smack you sideways with its heft and resonance. * Vulture * This sensitive novel illustrates the deeply individual ways we search for a sense of home. * RealSimple * This intimate story is about the families we are born into and the families we choose for ourselves... a quiet, sensual ex
