Sobre este título
'A wonderfully stylish writer with an unwavering eye' JOHN PATRICK McHUGH
'Perfectly calibrated . . . These characters spike off the page' A. K. BLAKEMORE
How do you mourn someone you never really knew?
Three siblings – Anna, Gemma and Matthew – will have to work that out quickly. Monday is the day of their gentle, but distant, father’s funeral, and for the first time in a long while they are under one roof with their mother, imperious Yvonne, awaiting the arrival of their aunt Amy, an award-winning poet.
Yet, as the funeral looms, their everyday concerns refuse to diminish: will newly sex-obsessed Gemma work out what she wants from life, beyond her mother’s expectations? Can Anna maintain the fine balance between desire and nonchalance with her not-quite-exclusive boyfriend back in London? Will Amy’s past explode the relationships of the present? And, crucially, will Yvonne pull off her grand, post-funeral family dinner, the solution to what she fears may be an unsolvable problem?
Told from five perspectives, into the wreck worries at the knotty complexities of one family’s bonds, written with Susannah Dickey’s trademark empathy and wit.
A rare talent, and certainly one to watch' SUNDAY TIMES

Resumo da Crítica
into the wreck is an intriguing, witty, moving and complex interrogation of modern Irish history, family, messy grief, and indomitable connections. Dickey is a wonderfully stylish writer with an unwavering eye for the truths of relationships: however squalid or sweet these truths may in fact be (JOHN PATRICK McHUGH, author of Fun and Games)
I absolutely gulped down into the wreck. Dickey’s prose, as ever, is perfectly calibrated. I can’t think of a contemporary writer who tackles modern relationships with fiercer wit and greater wisdom – these characters spike off the page (A. K. BLAKEMORE, Desmond Elliot Prize-winning author of The Glutton)
A superb piece of work. Incredibly moving, powerfully written. Substantial in its themes, profound in its interrogation of familial relationships, Susannah Dickey beautifully articulates the divergent existential experiences of parents and their children, teasing out the deeply uncomfortable and often painful situations arising in the aftermath of loss (MICHAEL MAGEE, Nero Book Award-winning author of Close to Home)
