Before grabbing the novel of the stranger I had not heard of it (!), The English writer named Paul Torday. Hardly had many others Finnish reader, not the half. Tordayn literary career seems interesting. According to Wikipedia, he was born in 1946 and published his first novel at the age of 59. Quite a career as a writer began in the late has been preceded by a successful working business man. So far works have appeared in six pieces. pigeonhole
First book was humorous and satirical book Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2006), which is a film made this year. Youtube found in the trailers of the movie is what a great opportunity! Put the mind! The novel idea is born author of two interests in, fly-fishing and the Orient, combining. The book was a success and won a couple of major awards in the UK. The second book is called The Irresistible Inheritance of Wilberforce, and is about a man who drinks himself to death. These data in the light of the first Tordayn production pigeonhole infatuation third work Vento Guest seems to be very different pigeonhole from its predecessors, which have also been different with each other. A very versatile writer, therefore, is in question.
Ventovieraassa the key themes pigeonhole of the marriage of anatomy in addition to mental illness, mainly schizophrenia, its treatment pigeonhole and the occurrence of, and racism. Themes seem cumbersome and difficult work as a basis for the entertainment, but somehow manages to hook the reader Torday book äärelle, so that among the omission does not even stop at my mind. Themes are namely woven very psychologically exciting story of a marriage that has been seasoned with a Gothic atmosphere, Scottish landscapes and peribrittiläisellä a gentleman's club inside a warmer atmosphere, and - through murder.
Ten years distant and kylmähkön years of marriage Elizabeth begin to notice pigeonhole miehessään MICHAEL unexpected changes. Man it feels like to come to life after a long horroskauden. Elizabeth was surprised, but overjoyed. It is only now, as they fall for each other, really. Good luck does not last very long, as Elizabeth gradually begins to dawn on a terrible September and the change in Michael's past secrets are revealed one after another.
Torday has taken a considerable risk of designing the structure of his book, as the book begins downright criminal, boring. Each other leipiintynyt couple to visit distant and unpleasant acquaintances mansion and refuse to see the man is in conjunction with the landing of the mysterious figure in the painting. But if the reader cope wade in the event of poor initial chapters through, he will be rewarded. The story begins to drag you even noticing. Torday tells the story of two points of view, and both Michael and Elizabeth pigeonhole can alternately sound. The same events are described with respect, two points of view, and they appear to the reader in some places bewilderingly different. Which one of the narrators are unreliable? Although this question weather too before the end of the answer, still waiting impatiently for the final solution.
Racism in Figure turns the image of Michael in London through the workplace. He shall be assisted pigeonhole by a part-time Crouchers named the club's secretary. The club rule is that a new member will be a gentleman, which is someone Jr. Member to propose and five other supports. Now, Michael's friend wants to club membership intialaistaustaiselle doctor friend. The club is divided into two camps. Some want to reform, others reject Patel's membership, citing frivolous traditions, even if the reason is really clear racial prejudices. Michael is accelerating on a lot. He can not tolerate the British impersonation of pure blood because of their perimänsähän is derived from the Pyrenees! This again relates to the idea of Michael's own strange experiences in childhood, which he has spent the family farm in the Highlands. Old, deteriorating lodge is straight out of the Gothic horror novel. It's no wonder that Elizabeth is not there ever enjoyed.
When the book towards the end of the first Michael's doctor disappears and the events anyway escalate quite hurjiksi, along comes the detective story elements. Completely secular means not everything has to find out, and poliisikin has puzzled the story of the fantasy elements of the waterfront! On the basis described in the book may perhaps keitosmaisen idea, but I think it is a cleverly constructed story that will remain long puzzled mind.
Google to search for "Paul Torday Vento Guest" results in a respectable list of blog reviews, but only one Journal of the reviews I found, namely, Janne Mäkelä's Body, written by culture, and it is not available on the internet. If you know of another, please vinkatkaa!
PS The cover this time Atenalle whip. The picture is far too wishy-washy, and no tune in the right mood, or to attract an exciting story of a friend to seize the book. The cover is made Emmi Kyytsönen.
I have the same power
