JOHN CAREY, SUNDAY TIMES ‘IS THERE ANYTHING VIKRAM SETH CANNOT DO? Seth’s novel is a wonder-work: irresistible, tense, deeply moving. . . . It is a novel that can stand being reread and reread, but the first time round it is an emotional cliff-hanger . . . My advice is secure a copy for yourself, settle down and prepare for the unforgettable.’ DANIEL JOHNSON, DAILY TELEGRAPH ‘THE FINEST NOVEL ABOUT MUSIC EVER WRITTEN IN ENGLISH . . . Music . . . is the final catharsis, ‘a sufficient gift’, more precious than happiness, worth any sacrifice. The same might be said of An Equal Music’ ALLAN MASSIE, SCOTSMAN ‘ALL HIS BOOKS HAVE THE POWER TO LIFT YOU OUT OF YOUR OWN LIFE AND CARRY YOU INTO A WORLD OF DELIGHT. . . . It is quite unusual how happy this novel and its predecessor can make you. . . It is a novel of wonderful high spirits and vitality, a true enchantment. All those who delighted in A Suitable Boy will find delight here, too.’ GERALD KAUFMAN, SUNDAY TELEGRAGH ‘IT IS NOT ONLY THE BIG MIND-WRENCHING SCENES WHICH MAKES THIS BOOK EXTRAORDINARY. An Equal Music proves that Seth can create a haunting world that resonates in the mind long after the final page has been read.’ PHILIP HENSHER, SPECTATOR ‘SETH GIVES THE FULLEST ACCOUNT I HAVE EVER READ IN FICTION OF A MUSICIAN’S RELATIONSHIP TO HIS MUSIC . . . a brilliant novel’ MAGGIE GEE, DAILY TELEGRAGH ‘WHERE AN EQUAL MUSIC PLEASES MOST IS IN THE RAVISHING REFINEMENT OF TECHNIQUE, its sure placement of scenes, and the unerring truth of its portrayal of a small, enclosed social world . . . Will still be read with pleasure and absorption decades from now’ GEORGINA METCALFE, DAILY MAIL ‘A MASTERPIECE . . . as clear, lovely and civilised as a Schubert quartet’ SHIRLEY CHEW, TLS ‘VIKRAM SETH’S WONDERFULLY CLEVER, SENSUOUS AND POIGNANT NOVEL, in which making new is a ‘magical translation’, conducted with decorum, tact, lucidity and a stirring sense of history’
A chance sighting on a bus; a letter which should never have been read; a pianist with a secret that touches the heart of her music ...AN EQUALl MUSIC is a book about love, about the love of a woman lost and found and lost again; it is a book about music and how the love of music can run like a passionate fugue through a life. It is the story of Michael, of Julia, and of the love that binds them. Zajrzyj koniecznie na inne moje aukcje z wartościowymi książkami!!! *Zdjęcie przedstawia oferowany przedmiot. |
