Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. From the acclaimed writer of the beloved Clara Callan comes a memorable new novel about first loves, love-after-love, and the end of things, set in summer in Quebec City. James Hillyer, a retired university professor whose life was evocatively described in October (Wright's novel published in 2008) is now barely existing after the death of his beloved daughter in her forties. On a whim, he tries to locate the woman he fell in love with so many years ago on a summer trip to Quebec and through the magic of the Internet he is able to find her. But Odette's present existence seems to be haunted by ghosts from her own past, in particular, the tough ex-con Raoul, with his long-standing grievances and the beginnings of dementia. The collision of past and present leads to violence nobody could have predicted and alters the lives of James and Odette forever. Nightfall skillfully captures the way in which our past is ever-present in our minds as we grow older, casting its spell of lost loves and the innocent joys of youth over the realities of aging and death. The novel is skillfully grounded in observation, propelled by unforgettable characters, and filled with wisdom about young love and old love. Drawing on the author's profound understanding of the intimate bonds of men and women, Nightfall is classic Richard B. Wright. Previously published: Toronto: Phyllis Bruce Editions, 2016. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9781476785387
