D. Edwards

    15 de marzo de 1926 – 1 de enero de 2000

    Eldonna Edwards se siente atraída por historias sobre la comunidad: los lugares donde vivimos, las familias en las que nacemos y las tribus a las que nos unimos. Su obra se desarrolla en ciudades natales familiares pobladas por personajes reconocibles de la vida cotidiana. A través de estos personajes, explora profundas cuestiones sobre el significado y el propósito, y las consecuencias superpuestas de nuestras elecciones. La autora integra hábilmente el humor para equilibrar los aspectos complejos y, a veces, más oscuros de las situaciones desafiantes.

      Rune Saint John, heir to the fallen Sun Court, finds clues to his Companion Brand’s past on a mission into the ruins of his family estate. But while he’s still agonizing over whether to tell Brand, a more pressing matter arises. Rune’s ward, Max, is nearly kidnapped by the Hanged Man, who has asserted a marriage claim on the young man. Rune isn’t about to lose Max to the Hanged Man and his court, the Gallows, which is known to have unhealthy interests in necromancy and mutilation magics. Urgency will lead Rune and Brand to the family of an old servant, whose own son has fallen into the Hanged Man’s orbit. In going to her aid, Rune may find a way to free both young men, but only if he’s willing to gamble everything on a decision that will change his life forever.

      Veselá kniha o neveselej prítomnosti a smutnej budúcnosti vzbudila pozornosť redakcií, ktoré uverejnili ohlasy významných osobností. Mark Twain sa pri čítaní diela občas rozplakal a usmial, s poznámkou, že zomrel v pravý čas. Jean Paul Belmondo vyjadril záujem o filmovú adaptáciu a rád by hral éterickú Zuzanku. Barack Obama komentoval zásah na Balkáne a vyjadril potrebu zlepšiť meno krajiny vo svete. George Bernard Shaw lamentoval nad tým, že na svete už bolo všetko, okrem ukradnutej ruky, a mrzelo ho, že mu takýto nápad nenapadol. Edit Piaf pocítila symbolickú nostalgiu a slzy pri spomienke na životné osudy hrdinov, pričom spomenula aj Beethovena. Vladimír Putin zdôraznil, že prosperita spočíva v poriadku a akceptovaní kolobehu života, pričom má v úmysle osloviť autora a pozvať ho do svojho konzultačného zboru. Autor paroduje súčasné seriály, pričom paródia sama o sebe slúži ako zrkadlo pre divákov a čitateľov. Súčasná slovenská literatúra sa žánrom paródie príliš nezaoberá, a preto je dielo považované za oživenie v tejto oblasti.
