A proposito di questo titolo
Recensioni della critica
'White City is a dark, hilarious and emotionally profound study of the toxic effects of greed and entitlement. Also, a story brilliantly and movingly told. Couldn’t stop reading it. Will read it again'
(Ed O'Loughlin, author of Not Untrue and Not Unkind)
(Ed O'Loughlin, author of Not Untrue and Not Unkind)
'This is part thriller but mostly a look at what it means to grow up... full of ridiculously beautiful, polished, & often scathing sentences. This novel is pleasing on so many levels, both intellectually & emotionally... You'll laugh, you'll cry... Read it, read it, read it' (Claire Hennessy, author, editor & publisher at Banshee Press)
‘A fast-paced and wickedly funny novel. Hugely entertaining. White City grabbed me from the opening pages and didn't let go’
(Danielle McLaughlin, author of The Art of Falling)
(Danielle McLaughlin, author of The Art of Falling)
'With the brilliant Bad Day in Blackrock back in 2008, Kevin Power more than earned his standing as one of our most prodigious talents. It's been a while, and anticipation for new work has been high, but White City – wild and beautiful, a whole addictive and breathlessly compelling world squeezed between these covers – has been worth every minute of the wait. A magnificent novel from a writer who is soaring to the most spectacular heights' (Billy O'Callaghan, author of Life Sentences)
'Outstanding second novel... A brilliantly entertaining novel that is profound in the most unexpected ways. Power is that rarity, a genuinely funny novelist... Yet all the more remarkable is Power's handling of tone: this novel moves effortlessly between humour and sincerity; it is steeped in empathy and raw anger'
'Worth the wait... Narrative twists and turns keep the reader turning the page, but Power is also a master of striking imagery, with which he threads his text'
'The kind of novel that makes writers jealous and readers cancel all their plans to finish it. As a commentary on the classless contemporary upper class, it's cutting and hilarious; as a portrait of the artist as a young man waylaid by his membership in that class, it's profound, unpretentious, unapologetically intelligent, and, again, really hilarious' (Lauren Oyler, author of Fake Accounts)
'White City is brilliant on the high-octane vacuity of Ireland’s rentier class. Power’s trademark shimmering prose counterpoints a driving narrative... Brilliant' (Eoin McNamee, author of Resurrection Man and The Blue Tango)
'I can't recommend it enough. It's often hilariously funny but it's also a sharp and smart dissection of contemporary materialism' (John Boyne, author of The Heart's Invisible Furies)
'An immensely enjoyable and tautly written account of a young man from an affluent family whose life of privilege is turned upside down'
'Spiky, blackly funny novel that offers an incisive study on class, entitlement and masculinity'
