Robin Black
À propos de cette écoute
Heralding the arrival of a stunning new voice in American fiction, Robin Black's If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This takes readers into the minds and hearts of people navigating the unsettling transitions that life presents to us all.
Written with maturity and insight, and in beautiful, clear-eyed prose, these stories plumb the depths of love, loss, and hope.
A father struggles to forge an independent identity as his blind daughter prepares for college. A mother comes to terms with her adult daughter's infidelity, even as she keeps a disturbing secret of her own. An artist mourns the end of a romance while painting a dying man's portrait. An accident on a trip to Italy and an unexpected connection with a stranger cause a woman to question her lifelong assumptions about herself.
Brilliant, hopeful, and fearlessly honest, If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This illuminates the truths of human relationships, truths we come to recognize in these characters and in ourselves.

“Pitch-perfect...so deft, so understated, and so compelling that you have to slow down to savor each vignette.... Fans of Mary Gaitskill, Amy Bloom, and Miranda July will feel like they’ve found gold in a river when they discover Robin Black.... [A] writer to watch.” (O, The Oprah Magazine)
“Each story reads like a mini-novel...worlds are contained in a single page. And the writing...oh, the writing... There’s no narrative cohesion, no point. Rather, If I Loved You is a ‘Fantastic Voyage’ into the bloodstream of the human species.... Maybe it’s midlife maturity, maybe it’s raw talent, but If I Loved You leaves you longing for more." (San Francisco Chronicle)
“Incisive...peopled with characters so fully imagined you’ll feel they’re in the room.” (People)
