Sinopse

Alexandre Dumas fils' novel, 'Camille,' is a poignant and romantic tale that explores the complex social norms and moral dilemmas faced by the protagonist, Marguerite Gautier. Through vivid descriptions and emotional depth, Dumas captures the tragedy of a courtesan torn between love and societal expectations in 19th century France. The novel is a masterpiece of French literature, known for its lyrical prose and compelling character development, making it a classic of the Romantic period. Dumas artfully presents a heartbreaking narrative of sacrifice and redemption that continues to resonate with readers today. Alexandre Dumas fils, himself the illegitimate son of the famous author, was a playwright and novelist who drew inspiration from his own experiences and observations of Parisian society. His deep understanding of human nature and his ability to portray complex relationships are evident in 'Camille,' a work that solidified his reputation as a master storyteller. I highly recommend 'Camille' to readers who appreciate emotional depth, historical fiction, and timeless themes of love and sacrifice. This novel is a must-read for those interested in exploring the complexities of human relationships and the enduring power of love.

    A swirling, psychedelic, bleakly funny fugue by the Booker-shortlisted author of The Butcher Boy and Breakfast on Pluto 
    Una Fogarty, suffering from dementia in a seaside nursing home, would be all alone without her brother Dan, whose epic free-verse monologue tells their family story. Exile from Ireland and immigrant life in England. Their mother’s trials as a call girl. Young Una’s search for love in a seemingly haunted hippie squat, and the two-timing Scottish stoner poet she’ll never get over. Now she sits outside in the sun as her memories unspool from Dan’s mouth and his own role in the tale grows ever stranger— and more sinister. 
    A swirling, psychedelic, bleakly funny fugue, Patrick McCabe’s epic reinvention of the verse novel combines Modernist fragmentation and Beat spontaneity with Irish folklore, then douses it in whiskey and sets it on fire. Drinking song and punk libretto, ancient as myth and wholly original, Poguemahone is the devastating telling of one family’s history—and the forces, seen and unseen, that make their fate.
