Omschrijving
Literary crime fiction portraying a life on the run, Last Night in Montreal is the debut novel from Emily St. John Mandel, bestselling author of Station Eleven.
Last Night in Montreal is literary crime fiction of the highest order. It is unusual to encounter a novel that so vividly creates a sense of life on the run . . . Intense and lyrical, the novel asks unsettling questions about who is the real victim of the tragedy that looms over the characters.
Mandel is an exuberant storyteller
Finely wrought . . . What we're made to ponder is the mystery of human connection: how it is born, how it fades and dies and revives, how love defines us or leaves us undone
Taut, gripping . . . elegantly compelling
Mandel has a beautiful writing style
Mandel tells an utterly absorbing story, pulling readers down the rabbit hole and keeping them racing through its long, strange warrens. The writing is vibrant, and Lilia is a vivid and haunting character . . . Last Night in Montreal is an exciting debut: a thriller, a love story, and a quiet ballad about life's fleeting connections
Highly recommended for all contemporary fiction collections
The debut of a lyrical voice, singing its heart out . . . a beautiful work
Emily St. John Mandel was born in Canada and studied dance at The School of Toronto Dance Theatre. She is the author of the novels Last Night in Montreal, The Singer's Gun, The Lola Quartet and Station Eleven and is a staff writer for The Millions. She lives in New York City.
