The Electric Michelangelo
De (autor): Sarah Hall
"Wickedly imagined and richly written. . . . Prose as highly colored as Hall's has to to be savored."--The Independent
SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE
Cy Parks is the Electric Michelangelo, an artist of extraordinary gifts whose medium happens to be the pliant, shifting canvas of the human body. Fleeing his mother's legacy -- a consumptives' hotel in a fading English seaside resort -- Cy reinvents himself in the incandescent honky-tonk of Coney Island in its heyday between the two world wars. Amid the carnival decadence of freak shows and roller coasters, enchanters and enigmas, scam artists and marks, Cy will find his muse: an enigmatic circus beauty who surrenders her body to his work, but whose soul tantalizingly eludes him.
