Krátky popis
From the prizewinning author of God's Own Country and A Natural
comes a moving and intimate exploration of marriage, devotion and
sacrifice, and a woman's enduring search for freedom. A Hunger is
the story of Anita: a talented sous chef at a high-end London
restaurant. At home, however, her husband Patrick is suffering from
dementia and declining rapidly. As she is thrown between two
conflicting worlds - the exciting bustle of her kitchen and her
exhausting new role as a carer - Anita must make a decision: about
her husband's future, as well as her own. Should she free them both
by acting on his last plea for mercy, or should she remain faithful
to the person Patrick once used to be? A decision complicated by
ambition and the guilt of her own past - and by her intensifying
friendship with another man, Peter, and the temptation of a new
life. A Hunger is a novel about love and sacrifice; how illness and
duty affect ordinary lives. With tenderness and precision, Ross
Raisin explores what it means to look after somebody at the end of
a life; what we owe to our loved ones, and to ourselves.
