January, 1982. Thirteen-year-old Jason Taylor - covert stammerer and reluctant poet - anticipates a stultifying year in his backwater English village. But he hasn't reckoned with bullies, simmering family discord, the Falklands War, a threatened gypsy invasion and those mysterious entities known as girls. Charting thirteen months in the black hole between childhood and adolescence, this is a captivating novel, wry, painful and vibrant with the stuff of life.

Rezension zu „Black Swan Green “
'David Mitchell is dizzyingly, dazzlingly good...BLACK SWAN GREEN is just gorgeous.' -- Daily Mail 'A delight to read from beginning to end' -- Sunday Express 'Luminously beautiful' -- The Times 'I do hope to read a better British novel this year, but I can't honestly say that I expect to.' -- Scotsman 'Mitchell is just about the best writer operating in Britain today...a novel that, like each of its predecessors, sticks in the back of your head for weeks after you've finished it.' -- Arena 'Spry, disconcerting and moving. It is also extremely funny even - or especially - at the blackest of moments.' -- Kate Kellaway, Observer Summer Reads 'Intricate and beautiful' -- Time Out 'Hugely touching and enjoyable' -- Rachel Cooke, Observer Summer Reads 'It is the best kind of contemporary fiction' -- Times Literary Supplement 'Rich and strange' -- Guardian 'That very rare thing, a realistic first novel written by a master of his craft.' -- Independent 'All the drama and inadvertent comedy of the onset of adolescence are brilliantly laid bare...a deceptively easy read, at times uproariously funny' -- Evening Standard
