Viac o knihe

In Persian myth, it is said that Akbar the Great built a palace which he filled with newborns, attended only by mutes, in order to learn whether language is innate or aquired. As the children grew into their silent and difficult world, this palace became known as the Gang Mahal, or Dumb House. In his first novel, John Burnside explores the possibilities inherent in a modern-day repetition of Akbars investigations. The unnamed narrator creates a twisted variant of the Dumb House. When the children develop a musical language of their own, excluding their jailer, he extracts an appalling revenge.

Recenzie Martinusákov

Distubing

This isn´t a kind of book you want to tell your friends about. It took me long enough to get around finishing it, but in the end, it was worth the effort.
Since english isn´t my mother language it was quite a challenge to read it and keep pace with the meaning. Whoah! Sometimes I had even to stop there for a while and read that page again.

Warning: I wouldn´t recommend this book to children nor easily disturbed folks. There is gore, death, sexual themes and other various disturbing things and as a parent you wouldn ´t be exactly happy finding out that your 15 yo baby-girl is reading this.

It was a strange book and I am still not sure if it was completely crazy or horrible in its own beautiful way. Either way, it left me thinking a lot... Still can´t figure out if I liked it or nah..

„A možno práve vtedy, oslobodení od sebectva zistíme, aký jednoduchý a krásny môže byť život. Úplne jasne uvidíme, čo všetko sme schopní obetovať a vzdáme sa toho s prekvapivou ľahkosťou, a jediný obraz, ktorý sa nám vryje navždy do pamäti, bude tvár človeka, ktorému sme podali ruku, aby vládal kráčať.“
