With acclaimed works like The Whereabouts of Eneas McNulty, Irish author Sebastian Barry has earned a reputation as a "master storyteller" ( The Wall Street Journal). In A Long Long Way he has created an unforgettable portrait of the horrors of war through the story of Willie Dunne, a young man who leaves his native Dublin in 1914 to join the Allies on the Western Front. Caught between the catastrophic violence he encounters there and the growing political tension at home over Irish independence, Willie finds himself confronting unbearable choices regarding family, patriotism, and the devotion he feels toward his regiment. A deeply affecting portrayal of personal struggle and the consequences of war, this is one of Barry's most powerful accomplishments.© Sebastion Barry; (P)Oakhill Publishing Ltd Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Kurgu Literary Fiction War & Military Aşırı duygusal Samimi Savaş

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Barry succeeds admirably in creating complex individuals who find themselves trapped in a brutal reality....Beautiful and soul-wrenching." ( Los Angeles Times)
"The story grips, shocks and saddens; but most importantly refuses to be forgotten." ( The Times of London)

Beautifully written in Barry's inimitable Irish voice. A story of the Irish in WW1 and their lives at home and at war, that gave this Englishman a better understanding and respect.

I was some what relived it was over,no more would I listen to my heroes plight.
A real story of Ireland's once forgotten heroes, who gave there lives for the common man, may once more see the roses of Picardy.
And here am I a hundred years after Little Wilily and can honestly say that my balls! will never hang as low as Wilily's and his Brothers!!

Wonderful writing again from Sebastian Barry. My favourite to date. Visited Ypres and battlefields last year and this brought it to life painfully and poignantly. Bravo.

A horrible, poetic and beautiful account of one man’s war. WExquisitely written, wonderfully narrated.

A review doesn’t do justice to story. Every reader/listener responds with their own story. Hope you enjoy as I did.

This was beautifully written, heart rending book. The prose brings home the brutality and waste of life suffered by so many millions. His writing is so poetic that it draws you along like a wave and totally immerses you.
The narration is perfect and added a dimension that would have been missing had I read the book myself.
