Descriere magazin:
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 BOOKER PRIZE nSeascraper shimmers, salt-flecked and rippling. It swells with tense, memorable moments...Poignant, authentic, and hopeful. --The Spectator n nIn two words: Short. Brilliant. --The Times (London) n nTwenty-year-old Thomas Flett lives a slow, deliberate life with his mother in Longferry, Northern England, working his grandpa\'s trade as a shanker. He rises early to take his horse and cart to the drizzly shore to scrape for shrimp, and spends the afternoon selling his wares, trying to wash away the salt and sea-scum, pining for his neighbor, Joan Wyeth, and playing songs on his guitar. At heart, he is a folk musician, but this remains a private dream. n nThen a mysterious American arrives in town and enlists Thomas\'s help in finding a perfect location for his next movie. Though skeptical at first, Thomas learns to trust the stranger, Edgar, and, shaken from the drudgery of his days by the promise of Hollywood glamour, begins to see a different future for himself. But how much of what Edgar claims is true, and how far can his inspiration carry Thomas? n nHaunting, timeless, and stunningly atmospheric,
Seascraper tells the story of a quiet existence upturned over the span of one day, and a young man hemmed in by his circumstances, striving to achieve fulfilment far beyond the world he knows. n nA small wonder...
Wood delivers so much in few words...reads like the forging of a new myth. --Financial Times n nBenjamin
Wood is a magnificent writer and I intend to read everything he has written. --Douglas Stuart, Booker Prize-winning author of Shuggie Bainn
