Krátky popis
A wickedly observed novel about falling in love at the end of your
life, by the Man Booker Prize-winning author of The Finkler
Question. At the age of ninety-something, Beryl Dusinbery is
forgetting everything - including her own children. She spends her
days stitching morbid samplers and tormenting her two
long-suffering carers, Nastya and Euphoria, with tangled stories of
her husbands and love affairs. Shimi Carmelli can do up his own
buttons, walks without the aid of a frame and speaks without
spitting.Among the widows of North London, he's whispered about as
the last of the eligible bachelors. Unlike Beryl, he forgets
nothing - especially not the shame of a childhood incident that has
hung over him like an oppressive cloud ever since. There's very
little life remaining for either of them, but perhaps just enough
to heal some of the hurt inflicted along the way, and find new
meaning in what's left. Told with Jacobson's trademark wit and
style, Live a Littleis in equal parts funny, irreverent and tender
- a novel to make you consider all the paths not taken, and whether
you could still change course.
