The red House
Mark Haddon
Synopsis "The red House"
From Mark Haddon, the bestselling author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, comes a dazzlingly inventive novel about modern family life. Richard, a wealthy doctor, invites his estranged sister and her family to join his family for a week at a vacation home in the English countryside. Against the backdrop of a strange family gathering, Haddon skillfully weaves together the stories of eight very different people forced into close quarters. The Red House is a symphony of long-held grudges, fading dreams and rising hopes, tightly guarded secrets and illicit desires, painting a portrait of contemporary family life that is at once bittersweet, comic, and deeply felt.
(Northampton, Inglaterra, 1963). Ilustrador, pintor, poeta y profesor de escritura creativa, es autor de cerca de una veintena de libros para niños. Tras licenciarse en Literatura Inglesa en la Universidad de Oxford, trabajó durante un tiempo con personas que padecían deficiencias físicas y mentales. Ha ejercido asimismo como guionista para la televisión, medio en el que ha ganado en dos ocasiones los prestigiosos premios BAFTA. Impulsado por un creciente proceso de boca a boca, El curioso incidente del perro a medianoche se ha convertido en un éxito sin precedentes en todos los países donde se ha publicado -los derechos se han vendido para 43 idiomas-, superando holgadamente los dos millones de ejemplares y alcanzando las listas de ventas en Inglaterra, Estados Unidos, Alemania, Italia y Francia.
