Inhalt/Kritik

Kritik
The best novel I read this year was Tim Parks's In Extremis, a frantic and minutely observed comedy of family, marriage, life and death. There is something in the synaptic twitch of Parks's prose that brings us closer to the pressures and rhythms of a lived life than the work of any other contemporary writer I can think of Mike McCormack New Statesman, Best Books of 2017mehr
