Long Island
9.99 €
The freshest novel of the modern classic by Colm Toibin, titan of Irish and world literature, winner of many prestigious prizes, multiple Booker finalist, and author of such international bestsellers as The Wizard and The Master. Fifteen years ago, his novel "Brooklyn" - a quiet odyssey of a young Irishwoman Eilish Lacey, who went from her native Enniscorthy to New York - won the hearts of readers around the world, and the screen adaptation of "Brooklyn", directed by John Crowley on the script by Toibin himself and Nick Hornby, won three "Oscars". But the story of Eilish did not let go Toybin - and now, for all his dislike of sequels ("It would be a disaster if "Ulysses" had a sequel ..."), he returned to the beloved heroine. Now, a quarter century has passed since the events of "Brooklyn." Eilish is married to Italian Tony Fiorello, they have two teenage children; they live on Long Island part of a large clan, next to the families of Tony's brothers and his parents. One day, a strange Irishman shows up on her doorstep and declares that his wife is pregnant with Tony's child and that he will not leave the child at home, but will bring it to the Fiorello family under the door and let Tony and Eilish deal with it themselves.
