Аннотация:
Eyrie tells the story of Tom Keely, a man who’s lost his bearings in middle age and is now holed up in a flat at the top of a grim highrise, looking down on the world he’s fallen out of love with.He’s cut himself off, until one day he runs into some neighbours: a woman he used to know when they were kids, and her introverted young boy. The encounter shakes him up in a way he doesn’t understand. Despite himself, Keely lets them in.What follows is a heart-stopping, groundbreaking novel for our times — funny, confronting, exhilarating and haunting — populated by unforgettable characters. It asks how, in an impossibly compromised world, we can ever hope to do the right thing.
