Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

I'm not interested, the way some people are, in being sad. I've had a look, and there's nothing down that road. Well now What about the ripping sound behind my eyes, the starchy tearing of fabric, end to end; what about the need I have to curl up my knees when I sleep? For all of her life, 44 year old Reta Winters has enjoyed the useful monotony of happiness: a loving family, good friends, growing success as a writer of light 'summertime' fiction. But this placid existence is cracked wide open when her beloved eldest daughter, Norah, drops out to sit on a gritty street corner, silent but for the sign around her neck that reads 'GOODNESS.' Reta's search for what drove her daughter to such a desperate statement turns into an unflinching and surprisingly funny meditation on where we find meaning and hope. Warmth, passion and wisdom come together in Shields' remarkably supple prose. Unless, a harrowing but ultimately consoling story of one family's anguish and healing, proves her mastery of extraordinary fictions about ordinary life.

Reviews
With a poet's precision, Shields dissects grief and makes coping with bad luck feel like domestic heroism., Closely observed moments create the kind of subtle textures and elegant prose that won Ms. Shields the Pulitzer Prize., Entirely satisfying. Shields' voice, tender and moderated at all times, remains wise and very readable., A fine book, poignant, witty, rich in character, vivid in its sense of place...surprisingly suspenseful., A fitting farewell from an author revered for her graceful, insightful writing...sparkles with wry humor and elegant irony., Shields's novels and short stories are intensely imagined, humanely generous, beautifully sustained and impeccably detailed., All Novelists Worth Their Fictional SALT Can Create Fine Characters; Carol Shields Creates Lives., Unless succeeds beautifully...Shields [is] an expert at illuminating the complicated dynamics of off-kilter families., Entirely satisfying... Shields' voice, tender and moderated at all times, remains wise and very readable., A wonderful, powerful book, written in a style which combines simplicity and elegance. I found it deeply moving., Remarkably subtle and unsettling...one of those books that make you regret that reading is a solitary pleasure., All the trademark Shields delights are robustly present: idiosyncratic plotting; limber prose...deep compassion...tart commentary and irreverent wit., Finely detailed, thoughtful and sometimes even humorous, this book is highly recommended for all fiction collections., A luminous novel ...Shields writes with clarity, intelligence and generosity, finding meaning in most mundane details of home life., A raw, subtle, inspiring novel about feminism, femininity, virtue, oppression and motherhood...I was inexpressibly moved by it., A thing of beauty--lucidly written, artfully ordered, riddled with riddles and undergirded with dark layers of philosophical meditations., Marvelously idiosyncratic, passionate and wise, Shields' tenth novel rollicks from beginning to end with sauciness and wit.
