Her memories widen out to include their whole life together, and beyond: the bonds of family and the battles with implacable nature stretching back over five generations, to Asle's great-great-grandmother Aliss. In Jon Fosse's vivid, hallucinatory prose, all these moments in time inhabit the same space, and the ghosts of the past collide with those who still live on. Aliss at the Fire, is a visionary masterpiece, a haunting exploration of love and loss that ranks among the greatest meditations on marriage and human fate.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 197mmItem Length: 114mmAuthor: Jon FosseContributor: Damion Searls (Edited by)Genre: FictionRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
