Reseña del editor
Jonathan Fitch was shocked by Mr Rinyo-Clacton's offer of a million pounds and one year to live, but what happened next was even more shocking. In a state of desperation after being left by the beautiful Serafina, Jonathan does his best to pull up his socks (and his trousers) with varying success. Beginning with the chance meeting of two strangers (both a little strange) in Piccadilly Circus Underground Station, Mr Rinyo-Clacton's Offer is full of the loving and carefully observed London detail that Russell Hoban and his readers enjoy. Some love stories are about triangles, but what happened between Jonathan and Serafina and Katerina and Mar Rinyo-Clacton is perhaps more of a trapezoid, in the pointy corners of which a long hard look is taken at what goes on between consenting, relenting and dissenting adults. Sharp and witty but written with affection, Mr Rinyo-Clactons Offer definatle y reaches parts not reached by other Hoban novels.
Biografía del autor
Born in 1925 in Pennsylvania, Russell Hoban was an illustrator before becoming a writer, and has written many books for children. His adult novels are The Lion of Boaz-Jachin and Jachin-Boaz, Kleinzeit, Riddley Walker, Pilgermann and The Medusa Frequency, and in 1992 he published The Moment Under the Moment, a collection of stories, a libretto, essays and sketches. In 1994 his opera collaboration with Sir Harrison Birtwhistle, The Second Mrs Kong, won much critical acclaim in its Glyndebourne performance.
