このコンテンツについて

'Think One Day written by (and starring) Virginia Woolf . . . lyrical and captivating' -The Observer
'Radiant, absorbing, sensual' - Joanna Quinn, author of The Whalebone Theatre
'Beautiful' - Sophie Elmhirst, author of Maurice and Maralyn

From the author of The End We Start From, now a major film starring Jodie Comer, and taking inspiration from the influential Bloomsbury Group, Days of Light is a sweeping, gorgeous story for fans of Mothering Sunday and The Hours.

Easter Sunday, 1938. Ivy is nineteen and ready for her life to finally begin. In the idyllic Sussex countryside, her sprawling, bohemian family and their friends gather for lunch, awaiting the arrival of a longed-for guest.

It is a single, enchanted afternoon that ends in tragedy.

Days later, at a funeral, Ivy is kissed by the man she will marry, and grieves with the woman who will become the love of her life. And this is only the beginning . . .

Chronicling six pivotal days across six decades, Days of Light moves through the Second World War and the twentieth century on a radiant journey through a life lived in pursuit of love and in search of an answer.

'Wonderful, luminous' - Mark Haddon, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
'The characters stay with you in the best way' - Sarah Moss, author of Summerwater
'Sublime. Wielding tremendous emotional power, it is a novel that is both raw and reverent' - Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites

批評家のレビュー

There’s warmth and depth in Hunter’s well-wrought prose. The characters stay with you in the best way (Sarah Moss, author of Summerwater)
A radiant, absorbing novel, intensely alive to the beauty and mystery of the everyday. Megan Hunter has written a thoughtful, sensual novel that, like the work of Graham Swift, shows us how the world can change in a moment and how our daily lives are run through with both the ordinary and the extraordinary. (Joanna Quinn, author of The Whalebone Theatre)
Think One Day written by (and starring) Virginia Woolf . . . This is a lyrical and captivating book, dropping decade by decade into a single day in the life of the brilliant, headstrong Ivy
Days of Light is sublime. Wielding tremendous emotional power, it is a novel that is both raw and reverent, attuned to the intricacies of loss, desire, hope and how to be in the world. (Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites)
Megan Hunter writes with such delicacy about how a single moment can shape and echo through a life. Her sentences are sensory events, open to every texture and shadow. A beautiful book. (Sophie Elmhirst, author of Maurice and Maralyn)
Both transcendent and stylish. A classy gem of a novel steeped in rapturous feeling and the cumulative awe and pain of a life deeply lived. (Sharlene Teo, author of Ponti)
Days of Light is elegant and piercing: the story of a life in six days, with all the epicness and intimacy that a premise like that holds. Hunter depicts Ivy's longing and anguish with painterly precision. (Sarvat Hasin, author of The Giant Dark)
Days of Light is a jewel of a novel. Brimming with heart and compassion, a whole life shines through its pages. I am in awe of Megan Hunter's profound grasp of human nature, as she carries us through grief and desire, hope and forgiveness. (Elizabeth Macneal, bestselling author of The Doll Factory)
Extraordinary. Beautiful, line by line, moving and absolutely transporting. (Cynan Jones, author of The Long Dry)
Intense, emotionally precise and deeply affecting . . . Hunter’s fidelity to ordinary experience, to the richness and pleasures of everyday life, to the texture of memory and desire, make for compelling, revelatory prose. Empathy informs all of Hunter’s novels and Days of Light is further proof of her great capacity for clarity and intelligence about our innermost selves. (Rebecca Birrell, author of This Dark Country)
A glittering marvel of a novel, tender, beautiful, and deeply moving. (Stephanie Bishop, author of The Anniversary)
Megan Hunter is a writer of liquid, incandescent prose. Days of Light is a singular novel about art and loss, love and violence, God and mystery . . . her best book yet (Jamie Quatro, author of Two-Step Devil )
