Uncle Rudolf (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The haunting novel from Paul Bailey, whose work has been short-listed twice for the Booker Prize.

At the age of seventy, Andrew Peters looks back across the years to remember life with his doting Uncle Rudolf, who rescued him from fascist Romania as a child. Vivid, often hilarious, stories of Rudolf's brilliant but blighted singing career are intertwined with the slow unfolding of secrets that have shadowed Andrew's otherwise happy life. Told in matchless prose, this deeply moving novel captures a vanished epoch with exquisite tact and restraint.
