Call Me Brooklyn
Produktinformationen "Call Me Brooklyn"
Eduardo Lago s Call Me Brooklyn, the story of a writer trying to complete his dead friend s unfinished novel . . . is a brilliant act of border-crossing: from country to country, text to text, and mind to mind. It is crazily romantic, excitingly unstable, remorselessly literary, and true to this present-day world in which we are all at once citizens and aliens. Luc Sante This masterful, beautifully grave and intimate novel has haunted me. Eduardo Lago, a Spanish novelist who has lived for decades in New York, voices songs of love and sorrow and loneliness in a novel that brings the past painful memories of the Spanish Civil War into a present where it burns like the friendship between the two main characters, confiding stories and mysteries in a seedy Brooklyn bar. Francisco Goldman One of the finest novels from Europe in the last decades a book of fantastic courage, otherworldly wisdom, and intense power. Lago is simply extraordinary. Junot Diaz Eduardo Lago, the last great revelation of Spanish literature, is a survivor who belongs to the strange race of those who still believe in the power of the written word. Enrique Vila-Matas
