Book Synopsis The Concrete Judasbird by : F. X. Mathews
Download or read book The Concrete Judasbird written by F. X. Mathews and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only a kid with a pocketful of sins running scared from the incomprehensible adults--""Michael Cassidy, orphaned, who grows up in an old house at the end of a dead end street with his impregnable Aunt Agnes who only gave answers that ""stopped things."" Thus from small infractions (he stays out of school; steals from the five and dime) and guilts and fears and an occasional overwhelming embarrassment, he grows up to find them compounded. After Aunt Agnes dies, he turns over seventeen tombstones in the cemetery, lifts a wallet, heads to the Midwest, takes a job in the zoo, flubs a second romantic attempt, goes home again, and accepts the ""real existential decision, to work out your salvation with a tool you know is defective."" At any rate to try and ""begin somewhere."" This dissociated, displaced young man, in search of himself (and, to an extent, a firmer story), is by now one of the more familiar faces in modern fiction; but his passade--particularly the early childhood scenes--from here to there and back is annotated with truth and feeling, evidences a talent which has begun somewhere in the autobiographical past and hopefully will gain some extension in the future. - Kirkus
Book Synopsis The Garden of the Whale-Fishes by : F. X. Mathews
Download or read book The Garden of the Whale-Fishes written by F. X. Mathews and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1348 a Franciscan friar from Kilkenny, a chronicler obsessed with the meaning of time, witnesses the coming of the Black Death to Ireland. This novel is his story-a man of faith, in a darkened universe, challenged to believe in the flesh. F. X. Mathews conjures up historical events-the freezing of the River Liffey, the Kyteler witchcraft trial, the beaching of the great whales, the plague-in haunting images that reverberate with the intensity of myth. His friar, the native Irish girl from the mountains, Medbh, and Colm, the dream-bewildered, island-dwelling tinker boy, figure in an uncommon love story played out, in a time of miracles and madness, against the end of time. F. X. MATHEWS is a professor emeritus of English at the University of Rhode Island and the author of two other novels, The Concrete Judasbird and The Frog in the Bottom of the Well. Of The Frog the critics wrote: "F. X. Mathews, whose talent sings like an angelic choir . . . draws character and scene with a dark, impressionistic incisiveness . . ." -The Boston Globe "A strong and compassionate definition of personalities within the press of circumstances illuminates this obsessive mythic tale . . . brilliantly conceived . . ." -Kirkus Reviews ." . . a grim but moving study of both the innocence and the mindless cruelties of childhood . . ." -Publishers'Weekly "Mathews can work up some stunning scenes . . ." -Newsweek ." . . a religious psychodrama that fulfills its ominous portents . . .chill tour de force . . ." -N. Y. Times Book Review
