Sinossi
Dall'autore del romanzo acclamato a livello internazionale e vincitore del Whitbread Award ''The Harmony Silk Factory'', arriva un nuovo avvincente romanzo che evoca un mondo esotico ma turbolento e spesso spaventoso. Adam, sedicenne, è orfano tre volte. Lui e suo fratello maggiore, Johan, sono stati abbandonati dalla madre quando erano bambini; ha visto Johan essere adottato e portato via da una coppia benestante; e ha dovuto nascondersi quando Karl, l'olandese che lo aveva cresciuto, è stato arrestato dai soldati durante la campagna di Sukarno per ripulire l'Indonesia degli anni '60 dal suo passato coloniale. Adam si mette in viaggio per trovare Karl, ma tutto ciò che ha a guidarlo sono alcune vecchie foto e lettere, che lo portano nella colorata e pericolosa capitale, Giacarta. Johan, nel frattempo, sta vivendo una vita apparentemente spensierata e privilegiata in Malesia, ma sta andando fuori controllo, incapace di dimenticare il tradimento di tanto tempo fa del suo indifeso e fiducioso fratello. ''Map of the Invisible World'' è un romanzo magistrale e conferma Tash Aw come uno dei più interessanti giovani scrittori contemporanei.

Paperback. Condizione: New. From the author of the internationally acclaimed, Whitbread Award-winning 'The Harmony Silk Factory' comes an enthralling new novel that evokes an exotic yet turbulent and often frightening world. Sixteen-year-old Adam is an orphan three times over. He and his older brother, Johan, were abandoned by their mother as children; he watched as Johan was adopted and taken away by a wealthy couple; and he had to hide when Karl, the Dutch man who raised him, was arrested by soldiers during Sukarno's drive to purge 1960s Indonesia of its colonial past. Adam sets out on a quest to find Karl, but all he has to guide him are some old photos and letters, which send him to the colourful, dangerous capital, Jakarta. Johan, meanwhile, is living a seemingly carefree, privileged life in Malaysia, but is careening out of control, unable to forget the long-ago betrayal of his helpless, trusting brother. 'Map of the Invisible World' is a masterful novel, and confirms Tash Aw as one of the most exciting young writers at work today. Codice articolo LU-9780007349982
