Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. 'The novel of the year is obviously Ali Smith's Autumn. Expansive, shape-shifting, at once more stringent and more consoling than anything I've read this year' Olivia Laing, ObserverAutumn 2016- Daniel is a century old. Elisabeth, born in 1984, has her eye on the future. And the UK is in pieces, divided by a historic once-in-a-generation summer. Love is won, love is lost. Hope is hand in hand with hopelessness. The seasons roll round, as ever.Ali Smith's new novel is a meditation on a world filling up with borders, on what richness and worth are, on what harvest means. From Shakespearian jeu d'esprit, via Keatsian melancholy and the sheer bright energy of 1960s Pop Art, this first in a quartet of novels casts an eye over our own time, asking who we are, where we are, right now.Here is time, ever-changing, ever cyclical. Here comes Autumn. "Fusing Keatsian mists and mellow fruitfulness with the vitality, the immediacy, and the color hit of pop art, Autumn is [an] . excavation of the present by the past. The novel is a stripped-branches take on popular culture and a meditation--in a world growing ever more bordered and exclusive--on what richness and worth are, what harvest means"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
