Coil of blue threads. Tyler E.

Whithenki always surprised with their cohesion and subtle specialty. It was a family that everyone was jealous in a good way. But like every family, they had a secret reality hidden from their eyes, which they themselves did not really realize. Ebbi, ed and four adult children in their luggage have not only wonderful memories of joy, laughter, family holidays, but also disappointments, jealousy, carefully protected secrets. In the novel by Ann Tyler, one of the best modern writers, the story of three generations of one family unfolds - touching, but not at all sentimental, dramatic, but ridiculous, very deep, but simple. Anne Tyler is sometimes called Northern Fenny Flagg, but her stories are much closer to the stories of A.P. Chekhov - thin, sad and funny and incredibly deep. She tells them in a quiet, slightly mocking voice, and they resonate for a long time in the soul, you think about them, and their own life appears in a new light - much more filled with meanings. Other books flash dazzling fireworks, but quickly go out, leaving behind a black sky, in which rare, but real stars shine - among which Anne Tyler’s novels. Anna Tyler is a laureate of the Pulitzer Prize, and the novel “The Coil of Blue Threads” in 2015 was nominated for the bookker award.
