Krátky popis
A ‘Book of the Year’ for The Guardian, The Observer, The Times,
Daily Express, The Spectator, The Financial Times, Daily Telegraph,
New Statesman and the IFeatured on Radio 4's 'Book at Bedtime''The
best novel that’s been written about contemporary Britain in the
past ten years. It’s funny but desperately moving too' – The Sunday
TimesAlan Hollinghurst, the Booker Prize-winning author of The Line
of Beauty, brings us a dark, luminous and wickedly funny portrait
of modern England through the lens of one man’s acutely observed
and often unnerving experience. It is a story of race and class,
theatre and sexuality, love and the cruel shock of violence, from
one of the finest writers of our age.Dave Win is thirteen years old
when he first goes to stay with the sponsors of his scholarship to
a local boarding school. This weekend, with its games and
challenges and surprising encounters, will open up heady new
possibilities, even as it exposes him to their son Giles’ envy and
violence.As their lives unfold over the next half a century, the
two boys’ careers will diverge dramatically: Dave, a gifted actor
struggling with convention and discrimination, Giles an
increasingly powerful and dangerous politician.Our Evenings is the
intimate and touching story of Dave Win’s life as a schoolboy and
student, his first love affairs, in London, and on the road with an
experimental theatre company, and of a late-life affair, which
transforms his sixties with a new sense of happiness and a perilous
security.
