Avis de l'équipe
Take a hilarious look at human life from an unlikely yet endearing perspective in Matt Haig’s The Humans, narrated in this unabridged audiobook by ever-popular British actor and broadcaster Mark Meadows. This enchanting story has all the markings of true creativity and literary skill. Professor-cum-alien Andrew Martin must learn the life of a human with all the trials and tribulations that come with it. The only companion he seems to understand is the family dog. This book will make you laugh, cry and be dazzled in its ability to capture the human spirit in a questionably non-human character. Available now from Audible.
Description
It's hardest to belong when you're closest to home....
One wet Friday evening, Professor Andrew Martin of Cambridge University solves the world's greatest mathematical riddle. Then he disappears. When he is found walking naked along the motorway, Professor Martin seems different. Besides the lack of clothes, he now finds normal life pointless. His loving wife and teenage son seem repulsive to him. In fact, he hates everyone on the planet. Everyone, that is, except Newton. And he's a dog.
Can a bit of Debussy and Emily Dickinson keep him from murder? Can the species which invented cheap white wine and peanut butter sandwiches be all that bad? And what is the warm feeling he gets when he looks into his wife's eyes?

Commentaires
" The Humans is a laugh-and-cry book. Troubling, thrilling, puzzling, believable and impossible. Matt Haig uses words like a tin-opener. We are the tin." (Jeanette Winterson)
" The Humans is tremendous; a kind of Curious Incident meets The Man Who Fell to Earth. It’s funny, touching and written in a highly appealing voice." (Joanne Harris)
"This is a tender, funny novel about the often irrational ways humans behave, written in accessible prose, and invites comparison with Mark Haddon and Patrick Ness." ( Independent)
"Excellent . . . very human and touching indeed." (Patrick Ness)
