Overview
«TÓIBÍN EN SU MEJOR VERSIÓN». THE TIMES
La emocionante continuación de Brooklyn, ganadora del Premio Costa Book, mejor libro del año según The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Times y The Observer, con más de un millón de lectores y llevada magistralmente al cine.
Es la primavera de 1976, y han pasado veinte años desde que Eilis se casó con Tony Fiorello y abandonó Brooklyn para mudarse a Long Island, junto a su extensa familia política. Ahí nacieron sus hijos, Rosella y Larry, y durante estos años ha vivido en aparente armonía, hasta que un hombre con acento irlandés aparece en la puerta de su casa con una inesperada noticia que hace que la frágil paz conyugal, compuesta de atronadores silencios, se tambalee. Por primera vez en mucho tiempo, Eilis se siente lejos de su Irlanda natal y decide regresar a Enniscorthy, a un mundo que creía haber dejado atrás y a unas maneras de vivir, y de amar, que pensaba haber perdido del todo. ¿Se equivocó al elegir a Tony? ¿Es demasiado tarde para cambiar de rumbo?
Tras cautivar a más de un millón de lectores con Brooklyn, ganadora del Premio Costa Book, el maestro de los sentimientos Colm Tóibín regresa con una exquisita secuela de alto impacto emocional.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICK
*Named a Most Anticipated Book by The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Financial Times, The Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Good Housekeeping, AARP, and more*
From the beloved, critically acclaimed New York Times bestselling author comes a spectacularly moving and intense novel of secrecy, misunderstanding, and love, the story of Eilis Lacey, the complex and enigmatic heroine of Brooklyn, Tóibín’s most popular work twenty years later.
Eilis Lacey is Irish, married to Tony Fiorello, a plumber and one of four Italian American brothers, all of whom live in neighboring houses on a cul-de-sac in Lindenhurst, Long Island, with their wives and children and Tony’s parents, a huge extended family that lives and works, eats and plays together. It is the spring of 1976 and Eilis, now in her forties with two teenage children, has no one to rely on in this still-new country. Though her ties to Ireland remain stronger than those that hold her to her new land and home, she has not returned in decades.
