After Battersea Park 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

From Booklist Curt, a jazz musician, was raised in Australia, and William, a visual artist, was reared in Canada. They are identical twins, separated at the age of four, unaware of each other's existence and of the fact that they have been adopted. Both struggle in their intimate relationships, finding it difficult to overcome the fear of abandonment and make a commitment to a lover. In short, alternating chapters written in dreamlike prose, Bennett fills in the great mystery at the center of their lives. The suicide of Curt's adoptive mother is the key that unlocks the secret of their parentage. Called to a reunion in Hawaii, they finally meet their biological parents and learn of the tragic circumstances behind their separation. In remarkably concise fashion, Bennett's story encompasses two decades and three continents while limning themes of family and cultural identity. It is the pull of his prose, more than the arc of his plot, which will lure readers into this offbeat, low-key, surprisingly resonant novel. Joanne WilkinsonCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved Book Description In an astonishing twist on the twins-separated-at-birth story torn from the tabloids, After Battersea Park narrates the lives of 27-year-old brothers Curt and William, the former a jazz musician living in Sydney, Australia, the latter a visual artist in Toronto, Canada. The men are drawn inexorably toward a reunion when a suicide note by Curt's adoptive mother reveals the identity of their true parents: Jilly, an Australian teacher; and Noah, a Hawaiian bartender, whose letters to his estranged sons begin to unravel the wrenching events of London's Battersea Park 23 years earlier. William and his doppelgänger conflate and dissolve, wrestling with the twin masters of memory and truth, nature and nurture, empire and colony, reason and passion. Bennett has penned a masterful portrait of artists and their muses and told the tale of two men longing to be whole and wholly understood. See all Editorial Reviews
