The Gospel of Us Zusammenfassung

The Gospel of Us Owen Sheers

While the town awaits the arrival of the Company Man, a stranger appears in the windswept dunes, singing songs to the sea. This is just the start of three days of unearthly events in Port Talbot that see the Teacher soothe a suicide bomber and the dead rising from the walls of an underpass. In the Gospel of Us, Owen Sheers reimagines his three day dramatization of the Passion for the National Theatre of Wales, set in the streets and clubs of Port Talbot and starring Michael Sheen.

The Gospel of Us Bewertungen

For his previous novella 'White Ravens' a gripping contemporary story - brilliantly absorbs the magical elements of the original The Guardian Sheers makes his 20th-century setting sing but holds on to the otherworldliness of his source material - A spellbinding fable about male self-destructiveness and the effects of war on those who return home. The Financial Times a gripping tale of the unexpected that fuses Welsh myth and modern macabre into a superb, bewitching whole The Sunday Times Via the sheep-farming landscapes of today's Wales and the Blitz-hit London of the 1940s, his novella dwells on the cyclical nature of atrocity in swift prose that slips between its periods and levels with gravity and grace. The Independent
