![]() ![]() Author: Kimball Michael Publisher: Pidgin Edizioni Big Ray è morto, ma il suo ricordo è tanto ingombrante e pesante quanto il suo corpo da vivo. Il figlio ne ricostruisce la vita alternandosi tra passato remoto e passato recente, tra i ricordi di un'infanzia violenta e le prove di riavvicinamento e comprensione dell'età adulta, nel tentativo di decifrare le origini della rabbia del padre e i fattori scatenanti della sua obesità. Raccontato in uno stile caratterizzato da oltre cinquecento paragrafi concisi e con una voce schietta e a tratti ironica, 'Big Ray' è un romanzo che offre una serie di squarci nella complessa elaborazione di un lutto e dei traumi di un'infanzia schiacciata dalla paura. € 15,00

![]() ![]() Author: Kimball Michael Publisher: Adelphi C'è una famiglia che si sposta dal Texas al Michigan, portando con sé la bara dell'ultimo nato e cercando di barattare, lungo il cammino, gli oggetti di cui la macchina è stipata. Ci sono gli esterni che sceglierebbe David Lynch dovendo rigirare, oggi, 'Furore': statali polverose, villaggi fantasma, fattorie con le porte che sbattono, sinistre, nel vento. E ci sono due bambini, che con pochissime parole raccontano, alternandosi, una storia in apparenza elementare. Ma subito le strofe di questa filastrocca metallica e stridente si trasportano in un paesaggio allucinato, che non sappiamo più se sia l'America profonda, la Terra dei Morti, o un qualche terrificante stadio intermedio fra i due. € 14,00
Scontato: € 13,30
