Popis

Winner of the Booker Prize, Penelope Lively''s Moon Tiger is the tale of a historian confronting her own, personal history, unearthing the passions and pains that have defined her life. This Penguin Modern Classics edition includes an introduction by Anthony Thwaite.Claudia Hampton, a beautiful, famous writer, lies dying in hospital. But, as the nurses tend to her with quiet condescension, she is plotting her greatest work: ''a history of the world ... and in the process, my own''. Gradually she re-creates the rich mosaic of her life and times, conjuring up those she has known. There is Gordon, her adored brother; Jasper, the charming, untrustworthy lover and father of Lisa, her cool, conventional daughter; and Tom, her one great love, both found and lost in wartime Egypt. Penelope Lively''s Booker Prize-winning novel weaves an exquisite mesh of memories, flashbacks and shifting voices, in a haunting story of loss and desire.Penelope Lively (b. 1933) was born in Cairo. She has twice been shortlisted for the Booker Prize; once in 1977 for her first novel, The Road to Lichfield, and again in 1984 for According to Mark. She later won the 1987 Booker Prize for her highly acclaimed novel Moon Tiger. Her novels include Passing On, City of the Mind, Cleopatra''s Sister and Heat Wave, and many are published by Penguin.If you enjoyed Moon Tiger, you might like L.P. Hartley''s The Go-Between, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.''It''s a fine, intelligent piece of work, the kind that Leaves its traces in the air long after you''ve put it away''Anne Tyler''Funny, thoughtful ... a perfect example of the Lively art'' Mark Lawson, Independent
