Produktinformationen zu „A Long Long Way “
A repackaged edition of A Long Long Way by Sebastian Barry - shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2005 - an epic and moving story of one man's war.
Klappentext zu „A Long Long Way “
One of the most vivid and realised characters of recent fiction, Willie Dunne is the innocent hero of Sebastian Barry's highly acclaimed novel. Leaving Dublin to fight for the Allied cause as a member of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers, he finds himself caught between the war playing out on foreign fields and that festering at home, waiting to erupt with the Easter Rising.Profoundly moving, intimate and epic, A Long Long Way charts and evokes a terrible coming of age, one too often written out of history.

Pressezitat
Open this novel anywhere and you'll find a scene that is capable of moving you to tears. Not that it is a miserable book: there are also scenes to make you laugh out loud, and some - plenty - to make you gasp with admiration at the sheer beauty of the writing. Arminta Wallace Irish Times (Dublin)
