CLEAN!! No marks. Might as well be new. Appears unread. . . . . . . Publisher Synopsis: It might be thought we could do without another account of an Irish childhood and a wet-behind-the-ears arrival in London, but we couldn't do without this one. He is in fact a relishably odd fish.'Memories aren't true. But you can be true to them.' This comes near the end and defines the half-heard strain of stubborn honourableness that holds together the humourous melancholy of this memorable book. P.J. Kavanagh, The Spectator; Young is like Orwell's Henry Miller, getting on with his own life while momentous events surge on beyond his control.At one point Young is game enough to admit that 'poetry is a state of panic where some poor souls suffer for a time before they go to repose', but he has hardly turned his back on poetry in writing this book, which is highly poetic in its subjectivity, in its fine dissection of feeling, in its refusal to simplify people and so present them as 'characters'. I shall treasure Young's book. Crispin Jackson, The Literary Review; I have not laughed so much since my first reading of The Third Policeman. This book is an oddity, but a beautiful oddity, which goes from high comedy to deep pathos in the flick of a semi-colon. The final impression is of a haunting sadness, as in all the best comic writing. Alannah Hopkin, The Irish Times; Augustus Young. is a highly sophisticated writer and a very funny one. If there is any justice in the world, this book ought to become classic. What makes it so successful is that it is all done with smoke and mirrors, and it is done superbly. -- David McLaurin, The Tablet.

In den Warenkorbpaperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Augustus Young first glimpsed Bras de Vénus at the very end of the 20th century and soon after became a permanent denizen of this charming French town. As a stranger, at first he was an object of curiosity - people made way, shopkeepers smiled, butchers produced choice cuts and young ladies noticed him. But soon he was no longer considered a novelty and the town lost interest in him. Isolated by his lack of the language, Augustus resolved to undergo what turned out to be the painful process of acquiring skills to communicate with the locals. He discovered that young ladies smiled because they had good teeth, butchers offered rejected cuts and friendly greetings were a cover for laughing behind his back. And yet he prevailed, and was rewarded along the way with an extraordinary cast of acquaintances, friends and enemies - here all shrewdly brought to literary life.The Forked River Anthology captures, in prose and poem, Augustus Young's journey to embrace and be embraced in a seaside town on the Mediterranean.
