Sinossi
Brillante... Non riuscivo a smettere di leggere' Jo Spain 'Eccezionale... Profondamente agghiacciante' Jane Casey ______________ Des è un bravo marito, un bravo padre, un bravo uomo. Incoraggia gli sforzi artistici della moglie, legge le favole della buonanotte ai figli ogni sera e ha un lavoro ben pagato. Ma le apparenze possono ingannare. Sua moglie sembra dimenticare che la sua arte è solo per i suoi occhi. Le voci sul lavoro minacciano la sua reputazione di devoto padre di famiglia. E i suoi figli non sembrano aver più bisogno di lui come una volta. Des ha paura. Ha paura che il mondo invada la sua casa. Ha paura che gli errori passati lo raggiungano. Ha così paura di perdere il controllo sulla sua famiglia che sta contemplando l'impensabile. A Good Father è un romanzo dark e avvincente che ti trasporta nella mente di un uomo sull'orlo del baratro.__________________ "Questo romanzo intricatamente realizzato segna il debutto di uno scrittore di cui sentiremo molto parlare nei tempi a venire" John Banville "Affascinante... I lettori verranno per la premessa e rimarranno per la sua intelligente analisi" Irish Times "Una nuova voce devastante nella narrativa irlandese... Magnifico" Joe Duffy "Una lettura fantastica, avvincente, a tratti inquietante" Miriam O'Callaghan, RTÉ Radio 1
