Reviews
A heart-aching novel that resonated with me on a level I did not know existed. It's a book I strongly recommend., Vallgren will send you into new imaginative depths with The Merman, his unexpectedly arresting saga of magic realism. It is a revelation, and a riveting one at that. Packed with bracing and utterly believable brutality; it does not flutter but treads heavily, with deep social and literary purpose. This novel hooks you quietly, though insistently, with the gathering sense that events are pulsing toward something volatile and spectacular., There are some nicely observed episodes here and disturbing metaphors that offer brilliant, brief illuminations of his brutal subject matter., Vallgren's merman sits, tonally, directly across from Disney's Ariel. His riveting newly translated novel, The Merman, aligns more with his Scandinavian predecessor Hans Christian Andersen. There is nothing fanciful about this merman and his existence. There's a trembling beauty to the darkness in this book and how it views hope., Vallgrenhas written a deeply dark novel. Nella's wise stoicism makes her a memorableand affecting character, and her connection to the mistreated merman shows thatworking toward understanding is what can ultimately lead to redemption. A grimand moving contemporary fairy tale., Realistic and heartbreaking. A dark fairy tale about a mythical creature from the deep and the possibility of resisting evil. Nella is a burdened but strong and compassionate young woman and wins the reader's heart. Vallgren evokes his fantasy element with wonder and detail; The Merman is a singular story. Fans of adult fairy tales and bleak realism will be haunted and enthralled by this novel of human tragedies, and the mystery of what lies beyond., There are some nicely observed episodes here and disturbing metaphors that offer brilliant, brief illuminations of his brutal subject matter., Sensational. Vallgren has a superb talent, and makes witty and convincing cameos of the infamous and the great.

Synopsis
An exhilarating modern fairy tale about what happens when the tragic and mundane collide with the strange and wonderful., The Merman is a dark and haunting novel about sibling love and betrayal--and about what happens when the mundane collides with the strange and beautiful., Nella and her brother Robert live a difficult life with their mother and father in a small town on the west coast of Sweden. Robert is bullied at school, and Nella has to resort to debt and petty crime to pay off his tormentors. When she turns to her friend Tommy for help, her suspicions are aroused by the mysterious comings and goings of his brothers at their dilapidated boat house. But when she uncovers the reason behind their enigmatic behavior, her life is opened to the realities of a mindboggling secret. The Merman is a dark and haunting novel about sibling love and betrayal--and about what happens when the mundane collides with the strange and beautiful.

- p***p (47)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).Beautiful Music for Two String Instruments, Bk 3: 2 Violins by Samuel Applebaum (Nr. 403989405345)
