Présentation de l'éditeur
"A disturbing and memorable novel, in which public happenings and private thoughts and relationships are relentlessly intertwined -- the best kind of novel."- The Globe and Mail
"Not a book the reader is likely to forget, Out of This World--deserves to be ranked at the forefront of contemporary fiction." - The New York Times Book Review
"In unravelling the unhappy lives of members of the Beech family, the grandfather a war hero, the son a celebrated photo-journalist, the granddaughter estranged and undergoing analysis, the plot embraces the history of this century's warfare and the attempts of individuals to escape the legacy of their past.... A moving and painful saga." - Sunday Times (U.K.)
"Serious and interesting... Out of This World is asking Swift's characteristically painful, intelligent, difficult questions about the world." - The Observer (U.K.)
"Graham Swift is a writer of extraordinary power." - San Francisco Chronicle
"Powerful and exciting...intense as a thriller." - The London Times
Présentation de l'éditeur
Out of This World interweaves the history of a blighted family with the tragic and ludicrous history of the twentieth century. Its alternating narrators are a father and daughter--each obsessed with the other and irrevocably estranged--surveying their losses and grievances on opposite sides of the Atlantic.
"A moving, ingenious and often very funny tale that takes us deep into his characters' wounded, resilient hearts with breathtaking virtuosity...rich, complicated, joyful, arresting."--USA Today
