A passionate, tender and terrifying story of a mother's fight to protect her daughter
Diane Cook Knihy
27. júl 1976
Diane Cook sa zameriava na surové, zvieracie aspekty ľudskej povahy a na to, ako sa človek vyrovnáva s prírodným svetom, často sa obracia k dystopickým víziám budúcnosti. Jej štylistický prístup sa vyznačuje precíznym jazykom a schopnosťou vytvárať napätie, ktoré čitateľa vtiahne do napätých situácií. Cook skúma témy prežitia, rodiny a straty identity vo svete na pokraji kolapsu. Jej dielo núti čitateľov zamyslieť sa nad naším miestom v prírode a nad tým, čo nás robí ľuďmi.
