The setting is very atmospheric. It is a quiet story revealing the truth about family relationships. ( ) A slow, beautifully crafted book exploring family and home and the fundamental hold they can have on us, no matter how much we try to separate ourselves. The writing is crystalline - it's not surprising that Gorton made her name as a poet - and the characters are complex, frustrating and, ultimately, human. It's not a gripping page turner, but if you let yourself sink into the world that Gorton has created, there's a lot here to enjoy. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
'The Life of Houses' explores, with a poet's eye for detail, the hidden tensions in one of Australia's establishment families. These tensions come to the surface during a week in summer when Kit's recently divorced mother sends her away to stay with her estranged grandparents, and her unmarried aunt who cares for them, in their old and decaying house by the sea.
