Popis produktu
Hotel New Hampshire - John Irving "The first of my father's illusions was that bears could survive the life lived by human beings, and the second was that human beings could survive a life led in hotels." So says John Berry, son of a hapless dreamer, brother to a cadre of eccentric siblings, and chronicler of the lives lived, the loves experienced, the deaths met, and the myriad strange and wonderful times encountered by the family Berry. Hoteliers, pet-bear owners, friends of Freud (the animal trainer and vaudevillian, that is), and playthings of mad fate, they "dream on" in a funny, sad, outrageous, and moving novel by the remarkable author of A Son of the Circus and A Prayer for Owen Meany. "Like Garp, [THE HOTEL NEW HAMPSHIRE] is a startlingly original family saga that combines macabre humor with Dickensian sentiment and outrage at cruelty, dogmatism and injustice." -- Time "Rejoice! John Irving has written another book according to your world....You must read this book." -- Los Angeles Times "Spellbinding... Intensely human... A high-wire act of dazzling virtuosity." -- Cosmopolitan z kategorie Knihy | Cizojazyčná literatura | English literature | Fiction and Literature | Fiction od naleznete ne e-shopu KnihyDobrovsky.cz!
