Matt Beaumont: Small World, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Friends family workmates. The woman you see at the bus stop every morning; the man who reaches for the last newspaper just before you get to it. Everyone you meet and some you nearly meet will have an impact on the way your day goes.

Small World is the story of a group of men and women living and working in a city who are connected through love work friendship or simply by virtue of proximity. We connect with the hearts and minds of characters including an all-coping housewife a stressed out working mother a put-upon nanny a long-suffering journalist an Indian waiter who dreams of stardom a grieving shop assistant a stand-up comic and a psychotic policeman - all of whom speak directly to us about their innermost thoughts fears and desires in a series of interwoven first-person narratives.
