About this product
Product Information
The unnamed narrator of the `book of words' has a dark past and with these words - carefully chosen and dropped like a trail through a forest - the reader is compelled to tread with her the uncertain and spiky terrain of memory.First there is her childhood. She was raised by a wet nurse, who took the place that should have been filled by her ever-distant mother. Then her school days: a piano teacher, a gardener, and her friend Anna, whose mind is filled with violent fantasies. And, all the while in the background, her father - a man full of knowledge and an idealized hero, until she realizes that the world she has grown up in has begun to grind to a halt. Public transport is stopped, businesses are closed, and figures from her childhood disappear one after another - the regime is tightening its grip and it seems that her father is right at its centre.

The condition of this book was exactly as described, if not better in appearance than expected, and as always with this business it represents great value and quality for your money! Communication is first class, and their customer service never fails to deliver, leaving you wanting to buy more from them every time you look at their vast collection. Thank you so much, 5 stars again!!!
- d***5 (488)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseArrived well packed and just as described - but without CD which should have been inside the outer cover. It was obviously an oversight by seller. I contacted seller who immediately gave me full refund - within 2 minutes of my email! - and told me to keep the book. This is exceptional service and went above and beyond what is expected. Thank You so much 👍Teeline for Journalists,Dawn Johnston (#132647011039)
