Преуспевающий лондонский художник Питер Диггс погружается в сновидения и тайную жизнь Амариллис - загадочной и прекрасной женщины, которая неким необъяснимым образом связана с трагедией, выпавшей на его долю в далеком прошлом.

Лев Воаз-Иахинов и Иахин-Воазов Рассел Хобан
Язык: Русский В англоязычной литературе мало примеров такого удачного переноса мифа на чужую почву, вживления его, яркого, в серые лондонские буднишки.

"Captain Najork," says Aunt Fidget Wonkham-Strong, "is seven feet tall, with eyes like fire and a voice like thunder. He teaches fooling-around boys the lesson they so badly need, and it is not one that they soon forget."

Turtle Diary Russell Hoban
ISBN: 9781590176474 Год издания: 2013 Издательство: New York Review Books Язык: Английский Life in a city can be atomizing, isolating. And it certainly is for William G. and Neaera H., the strangers at the center of Russell Hoban’s surprisingly heartwarming novel Turtle Diary. William, a clerk at a used-book store, lives in a rooming house after a divorce that has left him without home or family. Neaera is a successful writer of children’s books, who, in her own estimation, “looks like the sort of spinster who doesn’t keep cats and is not a vegetarian. Looks…like a man’s woman who hasn’t got a man.” Entirely unknown to each other, they are both drawn to the turtle tank at the London zoo with “minds full of turtle thoughts,” wondering how the turtles might be freed. And then comes the day when Neaera walks into William’s bookstore, and together they form an unlikely partnership to make what seemed a crazy dream become a reality. -
