Olympia is Dennis Bock's first novel, preceding The Ash Garden. The Ash Garden was my introduction to Bock; it gathered all kinds of buzz because of the significant size of his advance. But it didn't live up to expectations; one had the sense it was deliberately constructed, built upon a scheme, and the underlying scaffolding was sometimes more visible than the story. I had the same sense here. At times, it seems that Bock's allusions and symbols are more clearly and carefully drawn than his characters. Nonetheless, Olympia suffers less from this fault than did The Ash Garden; although it garnered less attention (and cash up front), this is the better novel. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
This is an exploration of family ties. Through Peter's eyes we are told the story of his family, from the Bavarian war-damaged uncles who are trapped in the past to the Olympians striving to evolve into something new for the future. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
