このコンテンツについて

Bloomsbury presents Another Man in the Street by Caryl Phillips, read by Danny Sapani.

The powerful and evocative story of a young West Indian man's search for home in 1960s London - by the multi-award-winning author dubbed 'one of the literary giants of our time' (New York Times)

'A masterful stylist writing at the top of his powers' Anthony Joseph

____________________________________________

In the early Sixties, Victor ‘Lucky’ Johnson arrives in London from St Kitts, with dreams of becoming a journalist. Lucky soon finds work first at an Irish pub in Notting Hill – then as a rent collector for an unscrupulous slum landlord Peter Feldman.

Shadowing Lucky from his early struggles in London to the present day, Caryl Phillips paints a striking portrait of a flawed but vividly alive man grappling with the lifelong disillusionments of exile – and the uniquely complicated identity of the Windrush generation.

Another Man in the Street is an unforgettable story of loss, displacement, belonging, and the triumph of Black resilience - epic in scope and yet profoundly intimate; and a radical and timely portrait of immigrant London.

批評家のレビュー

Nobody has caught the sorrows of the immigrant condition, the loneliness and the constant humiliations, with more consistency and range than Caryl Phillips. He’s rewritten the history we too long took for granted and he’s given us complex human beings, both men and women, whom otherwise we too often walk past without noticing. Another Man in the Street feels like a culmination of a life-long project, taking us through six decades of modern English history with a rending and searing compassion that offers no easy answers. This is an urgent and sobering call for post-war Britain to reckon honestly with itself (PICO IYER)

Phillips is a writer with an intimate understanding of the Caribbean diaspora and the emotional tides which underpin it. A masterful stylist writing at the top of his powers, with nuance, precision and a deep humanity (ANTHONY JOSEPH)

Here, finally, is migration's untold truth: not the hope of departure, and triumph of ambition, but the truer tale of thwarted expectations: the long echo that follows an irrevocable choice. In this finely wrought novel Phillips captures the ways in which our dreams of elsewhere can become another kind of exile, when we become caught between what was and what will never be. Another Man in the Street lays bare the desolate beauty and melancholy of those quietly breaking hearts (AMINATTA FORNA)

Another Man in the Street is a sharply observed examination of the hopes and disappointments of the displaced and marginalised, both black and white. Using multiple narrative perspectives, it presents a compelling portrait of Britain from the view point of those whose voices are seldom heard (JACQUELINE ROY)

Caryl Phillips offers an original and intense meditation on postwar immigration to England. Historical forces are broken down into brilliantly told stories of what people lost, what they sought, what they ended up with. Migration is abandonment more than it is arrival, so Phillips makes us speculate through the fates of characters not soon forgotten. This past has everything to do with where we are now in a time of whole populations on the move (DARRYL PINCKNEY)
