Krátky popis
A story of desire, love and language - and the meaning of home -
told through conversations between two lovers A Chinese woman comes
to London to start a new life - away from her dead parents, away
from her old world. She knew she would be lonely, but will her new
relationship with the Australian-British-German landscape architect
bring her closer to this land she has chosen, will their love give
her a home? A Lover's Discourse is an exploration of romantic love
told through fragments of conversations between the two lovers.
Playing with language and the cultural differences that her
narrator encounters as she settles into life in a Britain still
reeling from the Brexit vote, Xiaolu Guo shows us how this couple
navigate these differences, and their romance, whether on their
unmoored houseboat or in a cramped and stifling flat share in east
London...Suffused with a wonderful sense of humour, this intimate
and tender novel asks universal questions: what is the meaning of
home when we've been uprooted? How can a man and woman be together?
And how best to be a woman and a mother?
