| Summary: | From the moment it first appeed, Lanark was hailed as the most remarkable novel of the second half of the 20th century. A work of extraordinary imagination and wide range, its playful narrative techniques convey a profound message, both personal and political, about humankinds inability to love, and yet our compulsion to go on trying. With its echoes of Dante, Blake, Joyce, Kafka and Lewis Carroll, Lanark has been translated into over a dozen languages to world-wide success. This paperback edition marks the novels return to its original publisher as the 100th title to appear in the influential Canongate Classics series. Шотландский мальчик Тоу Дункан с детства любил рисовать, но сначала Вторая мировая война, а после — тяжкая болезнь и непонимание окружающих сделали из него затворника. Бегство в выдуманные миры от тягот жизни и общения со сверстницами приводит Тоу в абсурдные миры, где и развиваютсмя основные события этого романа. |
