 “The Hiding Place” was nominated for last year’s Booker Prize, which went to “The Blind Assassin” by Margaret Atwood, a writer with whom Azzopardi shares some qualities: a prose style that’s somehow both impassioned and cool, and an ability to reveal her characters’ great suffering without asking us to pity them. There’s an aura of dignity around all of Azzopardi’s people, those, like Dolores, who manage to escape as well as those who don’t. Sharply written, full of crisp little vignettes and cameos, The Hiding Place could have done without its over-extended finale. PrijzenOnderscheidingen
A novel of childhood and family feuding, set in the Maltese community of Cardiff's Tiger Bay. Seen through the eyes of Dolores, it tells the story of her compulsive gambling father, Frankie, who loses everything to his rival Joe Medora, head of the Maltese Mafia.
