Krátky popis
Cyril Avery is not a real Avery or at least that’s what his
adoptive parents tell him. And he never will be. But if he isn’t a
real Avery, then who is he? Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl
cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do
if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked
Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only
tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more
glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead. At the mercy of fortune
and coincidence, he will spend a lifetime coming to know himself
and where he came from – and over his three score years and ten,
will struggle to discover an identity, a home, a country and much
more. In this, Boyne's most transcendent work to date, we are shown
the story of Ireland from the 1940s to today through the eyes of
one ordinary man. The Heart's Invisible Furies is a novel to make
you laugh and cry while reminding us all of the redemptive power of
the human spirit.
