Add to basket: Sumérgete en 'Open Water', una novela conmovedora de Caleb Azumah Nelson que explora la tierna y a veces dolorosa profundidad del amor. La historia sigue a dos jóvenes negros británicos, un fotógrafo y una bailarina, que se conocen en Londres y se enamoran. A través de una prosa lírica e intensa, Nelson examina temas de raza, masculinidad y vulnerabilidad en un mundo que a menudo los reduce a su color de piel. Ganadora del Costa First Novel Award 2021 y el Debut Novel of the Year en los British Book Awards 2022, esta novela es una meditación poética e intelectual sobre el arte y las relaciones en la vida moderna. EAN: 9780241448786 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Romance Título: Open Water Autor: Caleb Azumah Nelson Editorial: Viking Idioma: en Páginas: 145 Formato: tapa blanda.

'A love song to Black art and thought' Yaa Gyasi, bestselling author of HOMEGOING and TRANSCENDENT KINGDOM
Two young people meet at a pub in South East London. Both are Black British, both won scholarships to private schools where they struggled to belong, both are now artists - he a photographer, she a dancer - trying to make their mark in a city that by turns celebrates and rejects them. Tentatively, tenderly, they fall in love. But two people who seem destined to be together can still be torn apart by fear and violence.
At once an achingly beautiful love story and a potent insight into race and masculinity, Open Water asks what it means to be a person in a world that sees you only as a Black body, to be vulnerable when you are only respected for strength, to find safety in love, only to lose it. With gorgeous, soulful intensity, Caleb Azumah Nelson has written the most essential British debut of recent years.
