Description
Shortlisted for the 2022 Booker Prize and a Guardian Best Fiction Book of 2021
An introspective young boy, Joseph Coppock squints at the world with his lazy eye. Living alone in an old house, he reads comics, collects birds’ eggs and plays with his marbles. When, one day, a rag-and-bone man called Treacle Walker appears, exchanging an empty jar of a cure-all medicine and a donkey stone for a pair of Joseph's pyjamas and a lamb's shoulder blade, a mysterious friendship develops between them.
A fusion of myth, magic and the stories we make for ourselves, Treacle Walker is an extraordinary novel from one of our greatest living writers.
A NEW STATESMAN BOOK OF THE YEAR • A TLS BOOK OF THE YEAR • A GUARDIAN BEST FICTION BOOK OF 2021
Commentaires
"Treacle Walker is a small miracle." (New Statesman Best Books of 2021)
"It’s a strange, austere, uncompromising book, leagues ahead of anything else I’ve read this year." (Peter Thonemann, TLS)
"Treacle Walker is a circular narrative, made of smaller interlocking circles, with actions and whole paragraphs repeating: in its end is its beginning. This late fiction also works the seam opened up in Garner’s very first novel, inspired by the story handed down to his grandfather about enchanted sleepers under Alderley Edge.... Playful, moving and wholly remarkable work.... There’s a life’s work inside this little book" (Guardian)
