Detalles de producto
- 1980s. A time when the city of Glasgow was literally dying and families could barely survive. However, the charming middle-aged Agnes Bain believes she deserves more; Owning a detached house is like buying what you want... However, Agnes, who is constantly cheated on by her taxi driver husband, is doomed to live in a ruined mining town with her three children. Although her children do their best to save Agnes, who is slowly getting stuck in alcohol, after a while they leave her one by one to save themselves. Only the youngest, Shuggie, stays with his mother in the hope that one day she will recover. Shuggie, a different child, adopts his mother's assertive attitude. However, while his miner children beat him up for his behavior, he is also brutally tried by adults. Trying to be like other boys, Shuggie also tries to save his mother and get her out of this corrupt environment. Douglas Stuart's novel Shuggie Bain is a work of extraordinary strikingness and beauty, despite its unreserved attitude, revealing poverty, the limits of love and the futility of arrogance. We are struck by this surprisingly heartfelt, sensitive and gripping first novel about addiction, courage and love. A very sad questioning of destructive passions and the institution of the family, yet hope does not fade completely.

Many reviewers express their satisfaction with the book's quality, particularly praising the translation's excellence, which contributes to the overall reading experience. Several customers recommend the book unreservedly, echoing sentiments of appreciation for its storytelling and character depth.

Some technical issues were mentioned, such as printing errors affecting page clarity, which could detract from the experience for some readers. Despite these drawbacks, the overall sentiment leans towards endorsement, suggesting that "Shuggie Bain" will resonate well with fans of emotionally charged literature. **
