あらすじ・解説
Can a tiny vehicle provide the space to rebuild a life?
Thunderstone: a sculpted & fearless memoir from the award-winning author of Fifty Words for Snow - a Waterstones Book of the Month.
‘It was believed lightning would not strike a house that held a thunderstone. And so these fossils were placed on top of clocks, under floorboards, over stable doors... But there are some storms that thunderstones cannot prevent.’
In the wake of a traumatic lockdown, Nancy Campbell buys an old caravan and drives it into a strip of neglected woodland between a canal and railway. It is the first home she has ever owned. It will not move again.
As summer begins, Nancy embraces the challenge of how to live well in a space in which possessions and emotions often threaten to tumble. And as illness and uncertainty loom once more, it is this anchored van that will bring her solace and hope.
An intimate journal across the span of a defining summer, Thunderstone is a celebration of transformation; an invitation to approach life with imagination and to embrace change bravely.
批評家のレビュー
"Life-affirming, soul-shaking, heart-breaking… A book that reminds us what it means to be alive." (Kerri ní Dochartaigh, author of Thin Places)
"In this beautiful memoir Campbell traces a season of upheaval, grief and uncertainty as she makes a home in an unusual place... An uplifting, heart-filled read full of hope and love." (Lulah Ellender, author of Grounding)
"A courageous, compassionate, uncanny chronicle of life and loss on the fringes. Striking in its candour, brilliant in its breadth, often very funny." (Dan Richards, author of Outpost)
