THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

The unmissable new work from Ali Smith, following the dazzling Man Booker-shortlisted Seasonal quartet

One day in post-Brexit, mid-pandemic Britain, artist Sandy Gray receives an unexpected phone call from university acquaintance Martina Pelf. Martina is calling Sandy to ask for help with a mysterious question she's been left with after she's spent half a day locked in a room by border control officials for no reason she can fathom:

'Curlew or curfew? You choose.'

And what's any of this got to do with the story of a young and talented blacksmith hounded from her trade and her home more than five hundred years ago?

Ali Smith's novel takes wing, soaring between our atomised present and our medieval past in the hope we can open our locked down homes and selves to all the other times, other species, other histories, other possibilities.

'[An] entertaining and expert portrayal of the world we live in, seen by the most beguiling and likeable of novelistic intelligences' Telegraph

'[Companion piece] makes you look at the world afresh. For me, it turned a cold and depressing day into a bright one' New Statesman

Hatiralarin, düslerin ve gecici gercekliklerin dokunakli senfonisi.- The GuardianSonbahar. Sisin ve bereketin mevsimi. 1819da Keats böyle demisti. Peki ya 2016 sonbahari Daniel yüz yasinda bir adam. 1984 dogumlu Elisabeth ise gelecegi konusunda kaygili. Tarihe gececek bir yaz mevsiminin böldügü Birlesik Krallik paramparca. Kazanilan asklar ve kaybedilenler. Ümit, ümitsizlikle el ele. Mevsimler her zamanki gibi birbirinin etrafinda dönüyor.Ali Smithin Man Bookera aday gösterilen yeni romani, sinirlari ve dislayiciligi gitgide artan bir dünyaya, zenginlik ve degerin ne olduguna, hasadin ne anlama geldigine dair bir tefekkür. Birbirinden ayri ama yine de tipki mevsimler gibi birbiriyle baglantili ve döngüsel bir dörtlemenin, Mevsim Dörtlemesinin ilk kitabi olan Sonbahar, yasadigimiz zamanlara ceviriyor gözlerini. Bir kimiz Neyden yapilmisiz Shakespearvari bir nüktedanlik, Keatsvari bir melankoli, 1960lar Pop Artinin o isildayan enerjisi Yüzyillar bizim yaptigimiz tarihe cevirmis gözlerini.Iste yasadigimiz yer. Iste en muasir ve en döngüsel haliyle zaman.Essiz Ali Smithin hayal gücünden, yaslanma ve zaman üzerine, ask ve bizzat hikayeler üzerine, zamani kapsayisi genis ve tarihteki seyahatinde ayagina cabuk bir hikayeAli Smithin harika bir zihni var. Sonbahar karanlik bir zamanda yasiyor olmanin anlamina dair tüm o oyunbaz, tuhaf ve duygusal degerlendirmesinde son derece etkileyici.- The New York Times (lib)
