Faber & Faber Poradie kníh (chronologicky)

"A teacher visiting his dying brother in the Bronx. A mysterious journal from the nineteenth century stolen from a boarding house. A therapy clown and an assassin, both presumed dead, but perhaps not dead at all...this new novel is an inventive, poetic portrait of lovers and siblings as it questions the stories we have been told which may or may not be true."--Publisher marketing.

Mr Field, a concert pianist travelling back from a performance in London, suffers a fractured wrist in a train crash. On a whim, he uses his compensation money to buy a house he has seen in a newspaper - a replica of Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye -- on the coast outside Cape Town.
