Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Clark displays a rare sensitivity: she creates delicate emotional shades, and the rural sounds and smells of June...are startlingly fresh (Telegraph)

'The novel is a sort of dream fugue - a hypnotic treatise on nature, memory and desire...The landscape - peaty and sinister - has the force of a conscious presence' Time Out

'Pastoral sublime...I don't think I've ever read a better representation of the opposing loneliness, or separation, and total intimacy of romantic love, of a love affair...impressive how you track emotional perception and physical reality together, each embedded in the other. I wish I could do that...superb scene descriptions' Tim Pears

A haunting tale told in an original way (Vogue)

Candida Clark is justly known for stylistic virtuosity, for melancholy rhythms and mysterious evocativeness (Independent)

Hauntingly beautiful (Prima)

A serious and thoughtful work, exploring its complex themes with considerable sophistication and a delicate intensity...Ghost Music has its own undeniable resonance, continuing to echo powerfully in the mind after the last page has been turned (Guardian)

This moving novel confirms Clark's status as one of the best young writers of today (Sainsbury's Magazine)

Reseña del editor:

An English spa town in 1935 is made famous by an American novel: a love-story. Three years later, a young married actress travels there alone and finds the love-story itself, as she falls passionately in love with a young English man. Then, in the present, history seems to repeat itself when an English girl, haunted by the novel, visits the town and falls in love with a young archaeologist working there, and the tragic secrets of the pre-war love-affair are finally revealed.
