Serena Kutchinsky
概要
‘Sparkles with passion, greed and mystery’ OLIVER BULLOUGH, author of Butler to the World
‘Spellbinding’ LAURA MILLER, Slate
‘A jewel of a thriller’ CAROL WOOLTON, author of If Jewels Could Talk
When she was ten years old, Serena Kutchinsky’s father Paul was consumed by a wild dream. Heir to the legendary jewellery company House of Kutchinsky, he longed to create a jewelled egg more beautiful than any of Fabergé’s masterpieces. It would be the largest and most spectacular in the world.
Standing two feet tall, made of solid gold, dripping with rare pink diamonds and housing a tiny enamelled library, the egg was astonishing. But when he failed to sell it, everything started to unravel. The House of Kutchinsky collapsed, Paul’s marriage fell apart, and within ten years he was dead. The egg was seized by its creditors and disappeared without trace.
For thirty years its location remained a mystery, until it began to obsess Serena, too. Why did her father risk everything for this outlandish creation, and where in the world was it – valued by now at £30 million? Intent on finding answers, she traces a story that begins in London’s East End, with the arrival of her great-great grandparents as Polish-Jewish immigrants, and takes her to the other end of the world. It’s a journey that transforms her understanding of her father, her childhood and herself.
‘A brightly painted tale, with everything you could want from a book about a dynasty of jewellers’ SUNDAY TIMES
批評家のレビュー
‘A heady mix of intimate family memoir, refugee history and exploration of the gilded world of fine jewellery, Kutchinsky’s Egg is a thrilling read. At its heart, is a daughter’s bold and extraordinary quest to understand her father. This is a mesmerising tale, beautifully told. I could not put it down’ (Ariana Neumann, New York Times bestselling author of When Time Stopped)
‘Vulnerable, questing and uniquely moving, Kutchinsky's Egg is a sparkling story of loss, love and redemption' (Dan Richards, author of Outpost and Overnight)
'Kutchinsky's Egg is a wild and fascinating trip, a vivid story of a father's obsession and a daughter's love, but it also explores how we live with our emotional inheritances, and how we ultimately make peace with them' (Octavia Bright, broadcaster and author of This Ragged Grace)
‘Rich in details, sharp in suspense and devastating in its revelations. This is a jewel of a thriller – impossible to put down' (Carol Woolton, author of If Jewels Could Talk)
‘A memoir of fixations, big diamonds, big money, big ambitions, fur coats and grand houses, a pushy matriarch, love and loss, internecine melees, the rise and fall of a family of skilled and aesthetically incomparable Jewish jewellers in Britain. The writing is both intimate and dramatic. The storyteller confides in the reader as she unearths buried truths, secrets and lies. Utterly brilliant’ (Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, columnist for The i Paper and the Evening Standard)
