Close Range: Brokeback Mountain and Other Stoeries
Автор:Annie Proulx Год: 2009 Издание:Fourth Estate Страниц: 320 ISBN: 9781841150765 Jack Twist and Ennis del Mar lead hard and lonely lives as ranch hands in the uncompromising landscape of Wyoming, when unexpected companionship on Brokeback Mountain leads to something more beautiful, more-painful - and more deadly... "If you can't fix it you got a stand it." Ennis' words run like a harsh prairie stormwind through the starkly memorable, desperately poignant tales of the love, loss, ranch life and rodeo bulls of Close Range. In this ruthless struggle for survival on the unforgiving plains, both man and nature are forced to eke out a difficult existence in a battle to the death. Inventive, compassionate and full of macabre humour, the eleven extraordinary tales in Close Range reveal a writer at the height of her powers. Формат: 13 см х 19,5 см.
