Krátky popis
Solar Bones is a masterwork that builds its own style and language
one broken line at a time, the result is a visionary accounting of
the now. A vital, tender, death-haunted work by one of Ireland's
most important contemporary writers, Solar Bones is a celebration
of the unexpected beauty of life and of language, and our
inescapable nearness to our last end. It is All Souls Day, and the
spirit of Marcus Conway sits at his kitchen table and remembers. In
flowing, relentless prose, Conway recalls his life in rural
Ireland: as a boy and man, father, husband, citizen. His
ruminations move from childhood memories of his father's deftness
with machines to his own work as a civil engineer, from
transformations in the local economy to the tidal wave of global
financial collapse. Conway's thoughts go still further, outward to
the vast systems of time and history that hold us all. He stares
down through the ",vortex of his being,", surveying all the linked
circumstances that combined to bring him into this single moment,
and he makes us feel, if only for an instant, all the terror and
gratitude that existence inspires.
