Ancient Light
ISBN: 9780307946928 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Is there a difference between memory and invention? That is the question that haunts Alexander Cleave as he reflects on his first, and perhaps only, love--an underage affair with his best friend's mother. When his stunted acting career is suddenly, inexplicably revived with a movie role playing a man who may not be who he claims, his young leading lady--famous and fragile--unwittingly gives him the opportunity to see, with startling clarity, the gap between the things he has done and the way he recalls them. Profoundly moving, Ancient Light is written with the depth of character,...
