First Light is a pastoral növel of the late twentieth century, in which Peter Ackroyd meditates upon the nature of history, the problem of time and the true qualities of the English landscape. It is a növel in which comedy aligns with lyricism and in which the most illuminating speculations fit easily in the context of rural life.
First Light takes a giant leap away from the úrban worlds of Hawksmoor and Chatterton ; but it is no less subtle, no less profound, and no less comic. It is Peter Ackroyd's finest achievement, marking a considerable extension of his powers. Vissza
