Siúrmó - Leabhar mhí Aibreáin 2023 | April's Book of the Month 2023
Update: 2023-04-05
Description
[English version below]
Bréan den chaimiléireacht agus den chiníochas, tugann Fabio Montale a chúl leis na póilíní agus socraíonn síos leis an saol simplí a chaitheamh faoi sheanrithimí an bhaile — an fharraige, an t-iascach, beár na háite, agus cluichí belote faoin ngrian. Ach nuair a imíonn mac lena chol ceathrair gan tásc, tarraingítear Montale ar ais isteach i gcúlsráideanna dorcha Mharseille – agus i gcúlbhóithre na cuimhne.
Láithreoir: Seán Ó Catháin
Aíonna: Lisa Nic an Bhreithimh agus Aonghus Ó hAlmhain
[Leagan Gaeilge thuas]
Fabio Montale, an introspective ex-cop with a placid life based on cronies, aperitifs, and a little fishing, is yanked back into his city’s politically charged underworld. On one single sunny day, a beautiful cousin whom he hasn’t seen in years enlists his help to find her son, a wayward teen-ager, and an old friend is gunned down in front of him on the street. Izzo, who died in 2000, is more than adept at noir conventions—gritty light, sudden switches of scene, the pervasive rot of cynicism, which sullies even the best intentions. But what makes his work haunting is his extraordinary ability to convey the tastes and smells of Marseilles, and the way memory and obligation dog every step his hero takes.
