WINTER - ALI SMITH KARTONIERT (TB)

A once-in-a-generation series  Ali Smith's Seasonal Quartet is a tour-de-force about love  time
art  politics  and how we live now.   Winter? Bleak. Frosty wind  earth as iron  water as stone
so the old song goes. The shortest days  the longest nights. The trees are bare and shivering.

visible. And if there's ice  there'll be fire.  In Ali Smith's Winter   lifeforce matches up to
the toughest of the seasons. In this second novel in her acclaimed Seasonal cycle  the
follow-up to her sensational Autumn   Smith casts a merry eye over a bleak post-truth era with
a story rooted in history  memory and warmth  its taproot deep in the evergreens: art  love 
laughter.  It's the season that teaches us survival.  Here comes Winter.   Discover all four
instalments: Autumn  Winter  Spring and Summer.   *****  'Dazzling . . . Even in the bleak
midwinter  Smith is evergreen' Daily Telegraph   'Graceful  mischievous  joyful . . . Infused
with some much-needed humour  happiness and hope' Independent   'A novel of great ferocity 
tenderness and generosity of spirit . . . Luminously beautiful' Observer
