Erick Setiawan Poradie kníh (chronologicky)

Erick Setiawan je rozprávač, ktorého diela sa ponárajú do zložitostí ľudskej psychiky a spoločenského napätia. Vyrastal v Indonézii v období napätia, čo ho viedlo k hľadaniu útechy v literatúre a vo svete fantázie. Jeho rané zážitky v katolíckych školách a následné presťahovanie sa do Spojených štátov formovali jeho pohľad na svet a prenikli do jeho prózy hĺbkou porozumenia. Hoci pôvodne študoval psychológiu a informatiku, jeho vášeň pre písanie nakoniec zvíťazila, čo viedlo k tvorbe príbehov, ktoré skúmajú témy vy korenenia, hľadania identity a odolnosti ľudského ducha.

<i>Of Bees and Mist</i> is an engrossing fable that chronicles three generations of women under one family tree and places them in a mythical town where spirits and spells, witchcraft and demons, and prophets and clairvoyance are an everyday reality. Meridia grows up in a lonely home until she falls in love with Daniel at age sixteen. Soon, they marry, and Meridia can finally escape to live with her charming husband’s family—unaware that they harbor dark mysteries of their own. As Meridia struggles to embrace her life as a young bride, she discovers long-kept secrets about her own past as well as shocking truths about her new family that push her love, courage, and sanity to the brink. Erick Setiawan’s astonishing debut is a richly atmospheric and tumultuous ride of hope and heartbreak that is altogether touching, truthful, and memorable.
