The Census-Taker
In a remote house on a hilltop, a lonely boy witnesses a traumatic event. Left alone with his increasingly deranged parent, he dreams of safety, of joining the other children in the town below, of escape. He tries - and fails - to flee.
But by what authority does this man keep the meticulous records he carries? When at last a stranger knocks at his door, the boy senses that his days of isolation might be over. What is the purpose behind his questions?
Is he friend? Enemy? Or something else altogether? A novella filled with beauty, terror and strangeness, This Census-Taker is a poignant and riveting exploration of memory and identity.Číslo vydania 1Jazyky anglickyPočet strán 160Dátum uvedenia titulu 2017-02-01Rozmery 197x130x10Hmotnosť 245gTypPaperback
