概要

Brought to you by Penguin.

A mortally funny story of a mother's quest to save her son against all odds


Sandra dies unexpectedly at a conference in Nepal. Across the world in a desert in New Mexico, her teenage son, Trip, has run away from a centre for troubled youth.

But Sandra soon discovers that a mother’s work is never done, not even when you’re dead. It turns out limbo is a great place from which to keep an eye on your errant son. When Trip is picked up on the side of the road by a strange man, Sandra is the only one who knows where he is.

As Trip ventures further south towards the coast and directly into the eye of a hurricane, Sandra’s struggle to save him from the other realm begins.

From Florida’s Gulf Stream to the raging seas, through Munich-bound aeroplanes and from one body to another, Trip takes us on an absurd, profound and irresistibly entertaining odyssey - a story of childhood and motherhood, life and death, and everything in between.

批評家のレビュー

Raw and funny, yet graceful and astonishingly precise, Trip is a book with the power to resonate in the most intimate ways for any reader. I read it in awe, as if Barrodale had written it just for me (Ottessa Moshfegh)
Beautifully crafted, hard-boiled fun. Trip is a good time (Nell Zink)
Amie Barrodale’s Trip is an extraordinary novel. It is as if Kurt Vonnegut and Hunter S. Thompson have joined together to write a tender story of a recently dead mom who wanders the bardo but is always drawn back to her imperiled son, an autistic teenager who is on a boat with a stranger, lost at sea (Akhil Sharma)
What a brilliant, funny, beautiful, f*cked-up, heart-smashing novel (Sam Lipsyte)
Phenomenal and unpredictable, Trip is like nothing else I've read in a long time. I was hooked from the beginning and on the edge of my seat throughout. I loved this incredible novel (Ana Kinsella)
Trip is an extraordinary novel. I’ve read nothing like it. It is crazy, wise, sensitive, funny, and terrifying — all those things put together so fluidly you can’t pick one apart from the other. Like all the best physical, chemical, emotional, and existential trips I’ve taken, this one blows the mind and shocks the heart (Christopher Bollen)
Such a fun, surprising and interesting novel. I was captivated and charmed for its entirety; by the absurd humour at the death conference, by the main character's scenes in the bardo – the crazy sexual interlude when she borrows the body of a dental patient on nitrous especially. I was moved, too, by Barrodale's rendering of the complex emotions that come with a parent’s inevitable loss of control. (Adelaide Faith)
The wild and quirky debut novel from Barrodale ranges across two continents and the afterlife to tell the story of a mother and son’s failure to connect . . . Trip’s adventure story is great fun, and Barrodale’s depiction of the afterlife is amusing and wonderfully surreal. It’s a hoot
Blending humor and Buddhism, Barrodale’s debut novel will resonate with fans of afterlife fiction
A rather unstoppable read . . . Barrodale is incredibly skillful at evoking a wide range of emotions in a limited span of pages. Though dark, the novel is packed with wit and humor, and comes to a surprising conclusion that will especially satisfy parents who have attempted to impart a life lesson to a child. Trip is as absurd, tender and moving as life itself
