Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A generous book . as full of lost dreams as a starry sky on a foggy night' Daily TelegraphIt is 1973 and Peter Hill, his head filled with the Vietnam War, Frank Zappa, Jack Kerouac, the Watergate trial and Coronation Street, is about to spend six months on various remote Scottish lighthouses, 'keeping' with all manner of unusual and fascinating people.This charming and beautifully written account of that time is not only a heartfelt lament for Hill's own youth and innocence but also for a simpler and more honest age.'Poetic and evocative . What makes Stargazing such a beautiful book is that it is more than an elegy to a vanished profession. It is an elegy to youth and to the constellation of dreams, ambitions and anxieties that is more intense at 19 than it can ever be again' Sunday Herald'A gentle comedy of manners, which pitches the green-around-the-gills Hill - an adolescent idealist - into the intrinsically no- nonsense, manly world of the lighthouse' IndependentAs read on bbc radio 4Cover photograph: Courtesy of PhotonicaCover design: Ghost 336 pp. Englisch.
