Highway Blue
批評家のレビュー
“A beautiful, sun-drenched road story...a novel that’s in love with the idea of America, both contemporary in its concerns and deeply nostalgic, full of Edward Hopper diners and faded blue jeans.” (The Guardian)
“This story is gripping from start to finish, ripe with an ever-present sense of mystery and dripping with the boldness of youth.” (Booklist)
“A road novel, a love story, a coming-of-age tale, but with sentences so sharply wrought, characters so achingly precise, that it feels new and fresh and utterly alive.” (Lynn Steger Strong, author of Want)
あらすじ・解説
“You’ve never read a road trip novel like Ailsa McFarlane’s Highway Blue.” (Entertainment Weekly)
A hypnotic debut of broken love on the run, from a blazingly original young writer
"In front of me the long length of the road wound out, wound out and wound on under hot sky. And I drove...."
In the lonely town of San Padua, Anne Marie can never get the sound of the ocean out of her head. And it’s here - dog-walking by day, working bars by night - where she tries to forget about her ex-husband, Cal: both their brief marriage and their long estrangement.
When Cal shows up on Anne Marie’s doorstep one day, clearly in trouble, she reluctantly agrees to a drink. But later that night a gun goes off in a violent accident and the young couple are forced to hit the open road together in escape.
Crammed in a beat-up car with their broken past, so begins a journey across a vast, mythical American landscape, through the dark seams of the country, toward a city that may or may not represent salvation.
Highway Blue is a story of being lost and found - and of love, in all its forms. Written in spare, shimmering prose, it introduces the arrival of an electrifyingly singular new voice.
