It's raw and graphic but a little bit of heart slowly starts to emerge near the end, when FINALLY, one of the characters starts to seem likable, maybe even redeemable. Angel Station is the story of a the inhabitants of a grungy neighborhood in Prague, early 1990s. The stories vaguely interleave and each piece of doled out in random order (not chronological) so the overall feel is surreal and disorienting, likely intentionally, to emphasize the drug-ridden lifestyle of the characters. It's hard to say I "liked" this book, but I will probably remember it for a long time. ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"Angel Station takes its title from the bustling Metro stop in the Prague district of Smíchov. Until the gentrification of the late 1990s, it was a rough-and-tumble, working-class neighborhood with a sizeable Roma and Vietnamese population. Topol's novel, in sparse yet poetic language--agilely brought into English by the author's longtime translator Alex Zucker--weaves together the brutal and disturbing fates of an addict, a shopkeeper, and a religious fanatic as they each follow the path they hope will lead them to serenity: drugs, money, and faith."-- No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
