Titel: The Colony
Auteur: Audrey Magee
ISBN: 9780571367603
Conditie: Goed
SHORTLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE.
Longlisted for the 2022 Booker Prize.
'A canny, challenging, and never less than engrossing read.' Lisa MacInerney
'A vivid and memorable book about art, land and language, love and sev, youth and age. Big ideas tread lightly through Audrey Magee's strong prose.' Sarah Moss
'So brilliant in its quiet tragedy, so revealing in its precision, it haunts me.' Tsitsi Dangarembga
He handed the easel to the boatman, reaching down the pier wall towards the sea.
Mr Lloyd has decided to travel to the island by boat without engine - the authentic experience.
Unbeknownst to him, Mr Masson will also soon be arriving for the summer. Both will strive to encapsulate the truth of this place - one in his paintings, the other by capturing its speech, the language he hopes to preserve.
But the people who live on this rock - three miles long and half-a-mile wide - have their own views on what is being recorded, what is being taken and what is given in return. Soft summer days pass, and the islanders are forced to question what they value and what they desire. As the autumn beckons, and the visitors head home, there will be a reckoning.
