This book has a very nice climax when given. Exciting and has much significance to it. Symbolic and wonderful. ...a story in which characters really come alive during those few months we spend with them, when their lives are shaped for ever. In this taut novel, every word, every sentence, has meaning and substance. A hybrid of genres, it is a complex mystery, a work of historical fiction, a school story and one of friendship, with a leitmotif of time travel running through it. Most of all the novel is a thrilling puzzle. Stead piles up clues on the way to a moment of intense drama, after which it is pretty much impossible to stop reading until the last page. Eventually and improbably, these strands converge to form a thought-provoking whole. Stead ('First Light') accomplishes this by making every detail count, including Mirandas name, her hobby of knot tying and her favorite book, Madeleine LEngles 'A Wrinkle in Time'. Its easy to imagine readers studying Mirandas story as many times as shes read LEngles, and spending hours pondering the provocative questions it raises. Stead's novel is as much about character as story. Miranda's voice rings true with its faltering attempts at maturity and observation. The story builds slowly, emerging naturally from a sturdy premise. As Miranda reminisces, the time sequencing is somewhat challenging, but in an intriguing way. The setting is consistently strong. The stores and even the streets–in Miranda's neighborhood act as physical entities and impact the plot in tangible ways. This unusual, thought-provoking mystery will appeal to several types of readers. Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)Is opgenomen inWerd geïnspireerd doorPrijzenOnderscheidingenErelijsten
Miranda vindt op de meest gekste plaatsen briefjes die duidelijk voor haar bedoeld zijn. Het lijkt alsof de afzender haar door en door kent, zelfs dingen over haar weet die nog niet gebeurd zijn. Ze wil erachter komen wie de afzender is. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
