The Swell Season

A Text on the Most Important Things in Life

Hodnotenie knihy

Viac o knihe

In the six tales of The Swell Season, Skvorecky traces the libidinous ardours of young Danny, a teenager growing up in the forties. These wonderful tales, full of wry humour and unexpected plot twists, seem to add up to a fond portrait of an innocent era - this is, however, wartime Czechoslovakia, and the fragile world of the adolescent falls under the shadow of the Nazi presence. A winter's tale -- Oh, Maytime witch! -- Charleston in a cage -- A view from the tower -- A family hotel -- Sad autumn blues
