BOOK TWO OF THE GORMENGHAST TRILOGY

Enter the world of Gormenghast...the vast crumbling castle to which the seventy-seventh Earl, Titus Groan, is Lord and heir. Gothic labyrinth of roofs and turrets, cloisters and corridors, stairwells and dungeons, it is also the cobwebbed kingdom of Byzantine government and age-old rituals, a world primed to implode beneath the weight of centuries of intrigue, treachery, manipulation and murder.

Gormenghast is more than a sequel to Titus Groan - it is an enrichment and deepening of that book.The fertility of incident, character and rich atmosphere combine in a tour de force that ranks as one of the twentieth century's most remarkable feats of imaginative writing.

'The Gormenghast Trilogy is one of the most important works of the imagination to come out of [this] age' Anthony Burgess

Titus Alone Yazan: Mervyn Peake

Eleştirmen yorumları

Mervyn Peake is a master of the macabre and a traveller through the deeper and darker chasms of the imagination
Mervyn Peake is a finer poet than Edgar Allan Poe, and he is therefore able to maintain his world of fantasy brilliantly through three novels. [The Gormenghast Trilogy] is a very, very great work...a classic of our age (Robertson Davies)
[Peake's books] are actual additions to life; they give, like certain rare dreams, sensations we never had before, and enlarge our conception of the range of possible experience (C. S. Lewis)

So wonderful to get completely lost in this vivid and extraordinary world. Your vocabulary will go up a notch too!

Loved this!

Superbly written, wise and funny with lots of vivid characters. The brush strokes are broad and bright but there's a lot of detail and nuance.
A worthy successor to Titus Groan.
It's also one of the best narrated books I have ever heard, some of the characters are hilarious.

A gothic masterpiece

Surreal, visceral and sometimes brutal in the telling, it is a complete world of it's own.

Unlike anything I've read before.

Really enjoyed this book, quite a different style to Titus Groan. I particularly love this narration, Saul Reichlin does a great job of bringing the characters alive with all the different voices.

Great narration

Love every second of this book as good if not better then the first. The writing and characters are great. The story is a series of set pieces which has no consequence, but just a veneer of lays upon lays that serve up idea's...and boy! you never to the bottom of any of them such is the brilliance in the writing. It's superbly read by Saul Reichlin. l'm looking forward to the last in the trilogy Titus Alone. Andrew

Brilliant
