A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Fins and Brinco are best friends, and they both adore the wild and beautiful Leda. Together the three spend their days exploring and picking through the treasures that the sea washes on to the shores of Galicia. One day they come across treasure of another kind: a huge cache of whisky hidden under a sheet. But before they can exploit their discovery a shot rings out, and a man wearing an impeccable white suit and panama hat enters the room. That day they learn the most important lesson of all, that the mouth is for keeping quiet.

'Manuel Rivas reads like no-one else on the planet' Scotsman

'Full of rich imagery and a touch of fantasy' Independent

'Manuel Rivas is the best writer in Spain today. All Is Silence is a thoughtful, penetrating and haunting book whose poetic resonance lingers long after you turn the final page' Jason Webster

Présentation de l'éditeur

Manuel Rivas delivers a literary masterpiece about three young friends growing up in a community which is bound by a conspiracy of silence

Fins and Brinco are best friends, and they both adore the wild and beautiful Leda. The three young friends spend their days exploring the dunes and picking through the treasures that the sea washes on to the shores of Galicia. One day, as they are playing in the abandoned school on the edge of the village, they come across treasure of another kind: a huge cache of whisky hidden under a sheet. But before they can exploit their discovery a shot rings out, and a man wearing an impeccable white suit and panama hat enters the room. That day they learn the most important lesson of all, that the mouth is for keeping quiet.
