All the Way to Summer Zusammenfassung

All the Way to Summer: Stories of Love and Longing Dame Fiona Kidman

A powerful collection of stories exploring love and longing from the award-winning author of This Mortal Boy.

Two mothers fight over who will wear a hat on their children's wedding day. A needle is lost somewhere in a woman's body. A writer waits with a suitcase for a man who never comes.

This collection brings together Fiona Kidman's finest and most scandalous stories, vividly depicting the joys of female desire and the pain of heartbreak, the thrill of illicit liaisons and the twists and turns of unconventional love.

Sometimes joyful, often devastating and always beautiful, All the Way to Summer is a searing account of love and loss from a pioneering feminist icon.

All the Way to Summer Bewertungen

Praise for Fiona Kidman

'Kidman, a poet, is a beautiful writer' The Times

'A masterful storyteller' The Lady

'A truly gifted writer' Trip Fiction

Praise for This Mortal Boy

'Kidman's prose is precise, detailed, lyric . . . The fluencies and hard-won command of a good writer bring out their own truth' Irish Times

'Magnetic . . . The ending of a life involves decisions made by many, Kidman reminds us, with opportunities for compassion that are regularly missed until it's too late' New York Times

'Kidman deftly sketches the personalities behind the headline story, along with the ambiguities and mitigating circumstances surrounding them . . . In the emotional catharsis experienced by the imprisoned Paddy Black, she demonstrates how redemption may be grasped even at the final hour of the darkest day' Wall Street Journal

'It's an amazing novel, this. It's compelling' Val McDermid

'Perfectly captures the life of a young immigrant while taking a sharp look at New Zealand's social history. At once moving, compelling and ultimately tragic, it is also a fascinating beautifully written story' Liz Nugent

'A haunting read. . . Blends events as they unfold, painting the bigger historical and social picture but it is in the sensitive characterisation of Paddy and his desperate mother, Kathleen, that Kidman excels' Jess Kidd
