Open Strings (Paperback)
Published by Cinnamon Press, Blaenau Ffestiniog, 2023
ISBN 10: 1788649737 ISBN 13: 9781788649735
Language: English
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Following Roys boyhood in post-war rural Bedfordshire Open Strings immerses us in the countryside with its changing seasons and characters who accompany Roy as he makes the transition from childhood to adolescence. Often naive, Roy struggles to understand much of the behaviour he witnesses, yet makes discoveries about himself and the human condition.Moving from Flood with its echoes of Bruno Schulzs The Street of Crocodiles and merging of memory, imagination and dream to the onset of school, that results in a vow of silence, and through the friendships, rivalries, hero-worship, first loves and moments of pushing the boundaries of behaviour that come with these early life stages, we arrive at GDAE in which violence between strangers leaves Roy fleeing the scene as he has fled from other dilemmas.A poignant and convincing novella, Open Strings examines the way we make sense of the world with its moments of euphoria, its bewildering protocols, the strange behaviour of others and the small acts of betrayal that mark us deeply. Humane, engaging and authentic, Open Strings is a finely-observed collection and a compelling read. These vital vignettes of a post-War Bedfordshire childhood are delivered to us through rich recurrences and strange isolations of character.
