Eventually the setting moves back in time and away from the house, as the story is narrated in several voices, each with a unique perspective. Ich war von den ersten Seiten an total begeistert und konnte es immer kaum erwarten, den nächsten Leseabschnitt zu lesen.

She's just like many people fir whom events and feelings take over their world and there never seems to be time or the right way to sort everything out. Il destino è per sua natura capriccioso: nella vita le cose brutte arrivano da sé, e non è che se finisci nella merda una volta significa che non ci finirai più.The delicately observed family dynamics help to pull the reader in, spiking an interest in the tragedy that is at the centre of the story. How strange that she should be the last to go, and for a split second she can hear them, running up and down the stairs, the tumble and laughter, followed by silence. I have been aware of Jenny Éclair for years as a comedienne but I have never read any of her books before. As he arrives and go through the house for the first time, Edwina starts to reveal snippets of her life, room by room as the different memories and stories resurface. I think I had a preconceived notion that I would get a light, fluffy chick lit read with a heroine dripping with sarcasm and, in fact, nothing could have been further from the truth.

There is no surprise twist in the tale just a slow build to inevitable calamity as the pieces come together.We explore from room to room, including Edwina’s now unused studio – she was a successful illustrator. See on tegelikult päris hirmus, aga samas mulle väga meeldivad autorid, kes raskeid ja valusaid teemasid ei pelga. How strange that she should be the last to go, and for a split-second she can hear them, running up and down the stairs, the tumble and laughter, followed by this silence. When the twins go away to university, the differences between them and their step brother become even more apparent. Eclair is perhaps best known as a comedian, being the first woman to win the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Festival’s Perrier Comedy Award.

Posso anche lasciarla, ma frammenti di me resteranno qui, il pavimento di legno sarà sempre fradicio delle mie lacrime. Jenny Éclair has a very fresh and interesting writing style and I can’t wait to read more of her books. On the surface the story is one of hedonistic rich kids, that one has little sympathy for, yet underneath it is one of growing up, of discovering ones self, of love and ultimately loss. Unfortunately again, a bit rushed at the end, always feels as if she has lost her energy at the end, but the writing is much better or maybe she now just has a better editor, who knows. Man sollte sich vom wunderschönen Buchcover nicht ablenken lassen, das zwar sehr gelungen und wunderschön ist, den Leser aber auch durchaus täuschen kann.It's a difficult choice to make though, because they mainly involve Lucas as a fifty something, reflecting on his childhood and the lead up to the main event. Not completely sure about the structure: it's one complete story but told from three different perspectives.

Lucas - the bitter, jealous and unhappy overweight stepson completes the picture and finally tries to make amends.Even though I pretty much guessed what was going to happen, mostly and broadly, I really wanted to hear it as soon as possible. Not for the faint-hearted though; there are a few moments which will raise eyebrows with the more conservative types.
