À propos de ce contenu audio

Brought to you by Penguin.

On the face of it, Freya lives a gilded existence, dancing solely to her own tune. She has all the trappings of wealth and privilege, a responsible job as a surgeon specialising in skin grafts, a beautiful flat in a sought-after development, and a flash car. But it wasn’t always like this. Hers is a life founded on darkness.

Did what happened to Freya as a child one fateful summer influence the adult she would become – or was she always destined to be that person? Was she born with cruelty in her heart or did something force it into being?

In Fire, John Boyne takes the reader on a chilling, uncomfortable but utterly compelling psychological journey to the epicentre of the human condition, asking the age-old question: nurture – or nature?

Commentaires

Boyne has found a neat framework for a series of original novels, linked as much by theme and image as by character and setting. Fire is an exhilarating read.
You will hurtle through the book, because it is such a compelling story, so cleverly written.
Hypnotically clean, clear prose... powerful and memorable
Incredibly well-written

Le plus pertinent
An unsettling storyline, brilliantly delivered. Of the three "elements" I have so far either read, or listened to, this was my least favourite. That said, it was still excellent and I would absolutely recommend.

Another Boyne blockbuster.
