Mothers and Sons by Colm Tóibín ISBN: 9781035029525 (PB-B - EN) € bestellen verlanglijst A stunning collection of nine stories that teases out the delicate and difficult strands woven between mothers and sons. Mothers and Sons is a sensitive meditation on the dramas surrounding this most elemental of relationships.

This is an acute, masterful and moving collection that confirms Colm Tóibín as a great prose stylist of our time. Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
