O tej zvočni knjigi
Shortlisted for the 2017 Costa Novel Award
Finalist for the 2019 Indies Choice Book Award: Book of the Year
Longlisted for the 2019 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction
Finalist for the 2019 Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBTQ Fiction
From internationally bestselling author Sarah Winman comes an unforgettable and heartbreaking novel celebrating love in all its forms and the little moments that make up the life of an autoworker in a small working-class town.
This is almost a love story. But it's not as simple as that.
Ellis and Michael are twelve when they first become friends, and for a long time it is just the two of them, cycling the streets of Oxford, teaching themselves how to swim, discovering poetry, and dodging the fists of overbearing fathers. And then one day this closest of friendships grows into something more.
But then we fast-forward a decade or so, to find that Ellis is married to Annie, and Michael is nowhere in sight. Which leads to the question, what happened in the years between?
With beautiful prose and characters that are so real they jump off the page, Tin Man is a love letter to human kindness and friendship, and to loss and living.
