Krátky popis
'The funniest book I've read in ages. Savage but compelling' Ian
Rankin'Sharp, funny, and beautifully written, but it's also a
brilliant reflection on the landscape we now live in' Sunday Times
bestselling author, Joanna Cannon_____________________________What
a thing of wonder a mobile phone is. Six ounces of metal, glass and
plastic, fashioned into a sleek, shiny, precious object.At once, a
gateway to other worlds - and a treacherous weapon in the hands of
the unwary, the unwitting, the inept. The Cleverley family live a
gilded life, little realising how precarious their privilege is,
just one tweet away from disaster. George, the patriarch, is a
stalwart of television interviewing, a 'national treasure' (his
words), his wife Beverley, a celebrated novelist (although not as
celebrated as she would like), and their children, Nelson,
Elizabeth, Achilles, various degrees of catastrophe waiting to
happen.Together they will go on a journey of discovery through the
Hogarthian jungle of the modern living where past presumptions
count for nothing and carefully curated reputations can be
destroyed in an instant. Along the way they will learn how
volatile, how outraged, how unforgiving the world can be when you
step from the proscribed path. Powered by John Boyne's
characteristic humour and razor-sharp observation, The Echo Chamber
is a satiric helter skelter, a dizzying downward spiral of action
and consequence, poised somewhere between farce, absurdity and
oblivion.To err is maybe to be human but to really foul things up
you only need a phone.
