PRAISE FOR BRIGHT ANGEL TIME
"To get a sense of what Martha McPhee's affecting first novel is like, imagine Rabbit Run or Revolutionary Road written from the point of view of an 8-year-old child." - -Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"Gorgeous . . . In this well-rendered tale of misplaced dreams and forgotten realities, McPhee's prose is as delicate and lovely as an angel's wing."-US
Présentation de l'éditeur
From a “gifted novelist, a writer with the ability to surprise and move us” (New York Times) comes a “funny and acerbic” (Time) road novel set during the 1970s, in which an eight-year-old girl records her mother’s fateful dalliance with sex, drugs, and New Age spirituality. A New York Times Notable Book of the Year.

Hardback. Etat : Fair. Fiction Set in the early 1970s, this magical first novel by National Book Award finalist Martha McPhee marks not only the introduction of the Furey-Cooper family of Gorgeous Lies, but also the auspicious debut of a stunning literary talent. Meet eight-year-old Kate and her sisters as they take to a life on the road when their divorced mother falls in love with someone new. This strange freedom introduces the girls to a way of life that is vastly different from the one they knew with their geologist father. But, far from him, adult distraction and carelessness finally threaten to explode and ruin Kate's life. Rich in character, imagery, and humor, Bright Angel Time is a brilliant and moving novel from an authentic, critically acclaimed new voice.

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition. FIRST PRINTING. NYC author's critically acclaimed debut book. "This magical novel about three daughters struggling with divorce and dislocation introduces an exceptional new writer. Set in the early 1970s, 'Bright Angel Time' is the story of Kate and her sisters, and the life on the road they adopt when their divorced and devastated mother fallls in love with the mysterious, seductive Anton. Introduced to a new lifestyle marked by license and freedom, poker and alcohol, and exposure to sex and drugs, the girls fall into a way of living that is vastly different from the traditional days they once spent with their geologist father. He had taught them about rocks and solid things, especially a layrer of rock in the Grand Canyon called Bright Angel Shale." 244 pages. A fine copy save for a few clear pencil point size line indentations on DJ front. GM3. N° de réf. du vendeur 003005
