Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Risse; Gebogener Buchrücken. Mary Miller had always been an outcast. As a young girl she had fallen into the hot burn - a torrent of warm chemical run-off from the local coal mine. Fished out white-haired and half-dead, sympathy for her quickly faded when the young man who pushed her in died in a mining accident just two days later. From then on she was regarded with a mixture of suspicion and fascination by her God-fearing community. Now, years later she is hardly less alone. She is the mother of a bastard son, Sandy, and caught up in a faltering affair with a local teacher. Sandy, meanwhile, has fallen in love with a strange homeless girl. The search for happiness isn't easy. Both mother and son must face a dark secret from their past, in the growing knowledge that their small dramas are being played out against a much larger canvas, glimpsed only in symbols and flickering images - of decay and regrowth, of fire and water - of the flood. The Flood is both a coming-of-age novel and an amazing portrait of a time and place. Dark, atmospheric and powerful, it is a remarkable debut from a remarkable author.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En la novela 'The Flood' de Ian Rankin, Mary Miller siempre ha sido una marginada. De niña, cayó en un torrente de escorrentía química caliente de la mina de carbón local. Rescatada con el pelo blanco y medio muerta, la simpatía por ella se desvaneció rápidamente cuando el joven que la empujó murió en un accidente minero solo dos días después. Ahora, años después, sigue estando casi igual de sola. Es la madre de un hijo bastardo, Sandy, y está envuelta en una relación vacilante con un maestro local. Sandy, mientras tanto, se ha enamorado de una extraña chica sin hogar. La búsqueda de la felicidad no es fácil. Tanto la madre como el hijo deben enfrentarse a un oscuro secreto de su pasado, con el creciente conocimiento de que sus pequeños dramas se desarrollan en un lienzo mucho más grande, vislumbrado solo en símbolos e imágenes parpadeantes: de decadencia y regeneración, de fuego y agua, de la inundación. 'The Flood' es tanto una novela de iniciación como un asombroso retrato de un tiempo y un lugar. Oscura, atmosférica y poderosa, es un debut notable de un autor notable.
