Colin Thubron: Distance, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Edward has lost his short term-memory. He hopes it will return when he sees the cottage in which he lives. He recognizes his overcoat on the hook his books the double bed. The mystery however is Naomi. Edward has no recollection of who she is or why she has left him a love letter.

With Thubron's customary clarity he draws a bleak amnesiac world in which a young man must face again old griefs and linger 'like a coward just this side of knowing'. On the other side the memory of a destructive obsessive relationship looms.
