Little, Big

By John Crowley
Little, Big by John Crowley digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

John Crowley's masterful Little, Big is the epic story of Smoky Barnable, an anonymous young man who travels by foot from the City to a place called Edgewood—not found on any map—to marry Daily Alice Drinkawater, as was prophesied. It is the story of four generations of a singular family, living in a house that is many houses on the magical border of an otherworld. It is a story of fantastic love and heartrending loss; of impossible things and unshakable destinies; and of the great Tale that envelops us all. It is a wonder.

“Overly sentimental(laudatory).”
“3.5⭐ Ho adorato questo libro, finché non l'ho finito e allora mi è solo piaciuto abbastanza. L'atmosfera magica e surreale che lo pervade ha il suo fascino, grazie anche all'ottima scrittura di Crowley, ed è la principale spinta a continuare la lettura. Al tempo stesso, questa irrealtà, al limite dell'assurdità, crea confusione nella storia e nel worldbuilding, soprattutto sul finale che non mi ha aiutato a comprendere né mi ha dato le risposte che cercavo. https://libramente.altervista.org/2023/02/22/little-big/”
