Críticas:
"Bittersweet. . . . Winthrop proves to be a bitingly intelligent writer." --The New York Times Book Review"Reads like a heartfelt collision of Saul Bellow's Henderson the Rain King and the Oscar-winning American Beauty. . . . Pitch-perfect first-person narration." --Pages"Wry . . . Winthrop portrays with poignant humor the characters and events in Hollis' anxiety-filled existence." --Chicago Tribune"Brimming with gentle wisdom." --Redbook
Reseña del editor:
With his wife heading for her sister's home for the summer, leaving him to his own devices and his increasingly overwhelming compulsions, Hollis Clayton's disintegrating life is marked by drinking binges, anxiety, professional failure, the loss of his young son, a missing girlfriend, and a stray dog, and a back injury due to a midnight adventure on a neighbor's trampoline. A first novel. Reprint.

Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Hollis Clayton is in trouble. His wife has decamped for the summer, leaving him to pursue his increasingly overwhelming compulsions: drinking; spying on neighbors; worrying about the fate of an abducted local girl; avoiding his editor, who is on the verge of rejecting his new collection of stories; and confronting as obliquely as possible the recent death of his young son. Meanwhile, he is spending more time with Jack Daniels and a stubbornly persistent stray dog than with anyone else, including his girlfriend Marissa, who has either abandoned him or been abandoned by him, hes not sure which. A tender and comic portrait of suburban despair, Fireworks details the events of one strange summer in which a mans troubled soul hangs in the balance. In her perceptive exploration of Holliss disintegrating life, Elizabeth Winthrop gives us an unforgettably powerful portrait of an anguished man, one who is both endearingly flawed and vividly real. In an eviscerating comic portrait of suburban despair, Winthrops debut novel captures the mysterious seasons of a mans inner and outer life--marriage, grief, existential confusion, and finally, love--and the human spirits insistent and sometimes incongruous motion toward grace. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781400096978
