Waterland

Schutzumschlag Ecken angestoßen. Sonst sehr gut.

Set in England’s Fens, the story follows Tom Crick, a history teacher facing the end of his career, as he recounts his family’s past alongside local historical events. Blending personal tragedy, lost love and dark secrets, the novel explores the meaning of history, its impact on individuals and the cyclical nature of human experience. It’s a reflective and atmospheric narrative, subsequently shortlisted for the Booker Prize and filmed (wonderfully with Jeremy Irons).
