Mothers and Sons

Opis książki: Mothers and Sons

Colm Tóibín examines that most nuanced of relationships - that which develops between mothers and sons. This new and challenging collection of stories paint rich and textured portraits of individuals at different pivotal moments in their lives. In each case, Tóibín shows how their relationship with either a mother or a son, or their relationship to their own role as mother or son, reveals something unique and important about them. The stories feature Ireland or Irish narrators, but they are also truly universal. Sometimes shocking and always powerful, this masterful new collection confirms Tóibín as great prose stylist of our time.
