Weg der geesten

De Geus, 1996. Paperback. Pp: 234. In Weg der geesten schetst Barker een indrukwekkend, tijdloos en onvergetelijk beeld van mensen in oorlogstijd. De weg der geesten is de weg naar het front, waarvan een groot aantal solaten niet levend terugkeert. En degenen die overleven zullen nooit meer dezelfden zijn, maar als 'geesten' verder moeten. Verward, gebroken en verraden. Pat Barker vervlecht op aangrijpende wijze de verhalen van legerarts/psycholoog William Rivers en luitenant Billy Prior. Rivers' belangrijkste taak is getraumatiseerde Engelse militairen die aan het front zijn ingestort, weer klaar te stomen voor de strijd. Prior, een van Rivers' vroegere patiënten, is in 1918 op weg naar het front in Frankrijk. Hij denkt opgewassen te zijn tegen de gruwelen. Weg der geesten is de afsluiting van een trilogie die zich afspeelt tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog. De delen Niemandsland en Het oog in de deur (Guardian Tiction Prize 1993) verschenen eerder, bij De Geus. ISBN: 9789052263427. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Weg der geesten trilogie. Bevat: Niemandsland, Het oog in de deur, Weg der geesten

De Geus, 1995. Paperback. Pp: 589. 'Barker heeft een ongelooflijke prestatie geleverd. Niet alleen door de fraaie compositie van de trilogie, met de zeer geraffineerde mengeling van "fact" en "fiction", maar zeker ook door haar vermogen zich te verplaatsen in een mannenwereld en in de psychologie van de mannelijke erotiek. Zij is een meesteres in het beschrijven van erotische scènes en weet bijvoorbeeld de gecompliceerde biseksualiteit van Prior en de sluimerende homoseksualiteit van Rivers heel goed invoelbaar te maken. Een groot schrijfster, daar valt niet aan te ontkomen.' - Vrij Nederland. ISBN: 9789052264905. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Wide Open

Faber & Faber, 1999. Paperback. Pp: 290. Fifty miles to the south and east of London, poking out into the estuary of the river Thames, the Isle of Sheppey is a forgotten, misty back water. There's a prison, some wading birds and a small nudist beach. In front of this salty, blasted backdrop, Nicola Barker conjures up an imaginative landscape of breathtaking scope and audacity.

The Women of Troy. The Sunday Times Number One Bestseller

Penguin Books UK. Paperback. Pp: 320. Following her bestselling, critically acclaimed The Silence of the Girls, Pat Barker continues her extraordinary retelling of one of our greatest myths. 'Myth for a MeToo age. Pat Barker returns to Homer in this gory but unexpectedly uplifting novel' Sunday Times Troy has fallen. The Greeks have won their bitter war. They can return home as victors - all they need is a good wind to lift their sails. But the wind has vanished, the seas becalmed by vengeful gods, and so the warriors remain in limbo - camped in the shadow of the city they destroyed, kept company by the women they stole from it. The women of Troy. Helen - poor Helen. All that beauty, all that grace - and she was just a mouldy old bone for feral dogs to fight over. Cassandra, who has learned not to be too attached to her own prophecies. They have only ever been believed when she can get a man to deliver them. Stubborn Amina, with her gaze still fixed on the ruined towers of Troy, determined to avenge the slaughter of her king. Hecuba, howling and clawing her cheeks on the silent shore, as if she could make her cries heard in the gloomy halls of Hades. As if she could wake the dead. And Briseis, carrying her future in her womb: the unborn child of the dead hero Achilles. Once again caught up in the disputes of violent men. Once again faced with the chance to shape history. Masterful and enduringly resonant, ambitious and intimate, The Women of Troy continues Pat Barker's extraordinary retelling of one of our greatest classical myths, following on from the critically acclaimed The Silence of the Girls. 'Readers turn to Barker's novels for their plain truths and clear-eyed sense of our history and creation stories. But the sombre clarity of her writing is offset by a luminous wisdom' Sunday Times.
