Max Porter works in publishing. He lives in South London with his wife and children. Grief Is the Thing with Feathers is his first book.
In a London flat, two young boys face the unbearable sadness of their mother's sudden death. Their father, a Ted Hughes scholar and scruffy romantic, imagines a future of well-meaning visitors and emptiness.
In this moment of despair they are visited by Crow - antagonist, trickster, healer, babysitter. This self-described sentimental bird is attracted to the grieving family and threatens to stay until they no longer need him. As weeks turn to months and physical pain of loss gives way to memories, this little unit of three begin to heal.
In this extraordinary debut - part novella, part polyphonic fable, part essay on grief, Max Porter's compassion and bravura style combine to dazzling effect. Full of unexpected humour and profound emotional truth, Grief is the Thing with Feathers marks the arrival of a thrilling new talent.

寓言,文字游戏,戏谑混合着悲伤。这个cynical的乌鸦形象跟我看到简介时想象的完全不同。兔安利。
评分基莲老师的话剧原著!像一首短小精悍的诗,阴郁、忧伤,伦敦气息十足。充满隐喻的故事里全是黑色幽默和讽刺。到了末尾反倒有了一丝自我救赎的意味。期待四月去看基莲老师的演绎
