À propos de cet audio

Joe Allston, the retired literary agent in Stegner’s National Book Award-winning novel The Spectator Bird, returns in this disquieting and keenly observed novel.

Scarred by the senseless death of their son and baffled by the engulfing chaos of the 1960s, Allston and his wife, Ruth, have left the coast for a California retreat. And although their new home looks like Eden, it also has its serpents: Jim Peck, a messianic exponent of drugs, yoga, and sex, and Marian Catlin, an attractive young woman whose otherwordly innocence is far more appealing—and far more dangerous.

Les plus pertinents
Wallace Stegner comes as close as I have seen on explaining the mystery of life and its ending. His writing places you in the scene with exceptional detail, but not overwhelming. He tackles the big questions in a personal and not overly philosophical way. The story is compelling and the performance exceptional.
