She writes emotion really well, love and all the agonies and pains that entails. At times little happens, but they are beautifully written. There is nice use of language and dialect in here as well, without being difficult to understand. I listened to these and there was a good selection of voices chosen to read them. There was one very odd tale about a woman who appears to be turning into a tortoise, which was somewhat out of left field. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
In Jackie Kay's first collection of stories, ordinary lives are transformed by secrets. Her world might seem familiar - sex, death and family cast long shadows - but the roles of mothers, daughters and lovers are imagined and revealed in the most surprising of ways. Sometimes it is the things that we choose to hide within ourselves which can transform us - and that has never been more true than in Jackie Kay's warm, exuberant storytelling. She sees the extraordinary in everyday life, and lights it up with humour and generosity in a way that is uniquely her own. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
