À propos de ce contenu audio

Ruby Lennox was conceived grudgingly by Bunty and born while her father, George, was in the Dog and Hare in Doncaster telling a woman in an emerald dress and a D-cup that he wasn't married. Bunty had never wanted to marry George, but here she was, stuck in a flat above the pet shop in an ancient street beneath York Minster, with sensible and sardonic Patrica aged five, greedy cross-patch Gillian who refused to be ignored, and Ruby...

Ruby tells the story of The Family, from the day at the end of the nineteenth century when a travelling French photographer catches frail beautiful Alice and her children, like flowers in amber, to the startling, witty, and memorable events of Ruby's own life.

    Commentaires

    Delivers its jokes and its tragedies as efficiently as Dickens...outrageously funny on almost every page...will dazzle readers for years to come. (Hilary Mantel)
    'A debut novel of astonishing confidence and skill...Acutely observant, overflowing with good jokes, it is the work of an author who loves her characters and sets them playing with gleeful energy'
    'An astounding book...without doubt one of the finest novels I have read for years'
    'Little short of a masterpiece...Fizzing with wit and energy, Kate Atkinson's hilarious novel made me laugh and cry'
    'A blinding debut from a Yorkshire mother-of-two who could be Alan Bennett's baby sister...straight-up simplicity veils the depth, poignancy and poetry of her story'
    A first novel written so fluently and wittily that I sailed through it as though blown by an exhilarating wind. I loved it
    'Enchanting. It hops with sprightly omniscence from past to future and back again'
    A really gripping, emotionally satisfying family saga written with warmth and wit. I've re-read it countless times.

    I first read Behind the Scenes aged 40 when it quickly shot into my top five of all time favourites. Ten years on it is even more poignant. I cannot read this book - or listen to it- without a physical reaction of guts wrenching. Bunty and her “autistic” mothering - how perfect a portrayal of the northern mother you so much hope will love you as a child. Her withering resentment. Her inadequacy. The perfect portrayal of my own northern mother. So much so - I wondered if we could be related. As this novel shows, you can be related to the most unexpected of people without knowing it! This book inspired me ten years ago to write - and I was published. My own portrayal of what it means to grow up and be a “just” Ruby was inspired by this novel. Thank you Kate Atkinson. I know I will come back to this book again and again. It can’t all be taken in one one reading.

    Poignant masterpiece I will never forget
