Acerca de este título

Brought to you by Penguin.

A tragicomic portrait of one man's unravelling in an absurd, twisted world, Howl is the propulsive new novel from Booker-Prize winner Howard Jacobson.

In the aftermath of October 7, Ferdinand Draxler walks the streets of London in despair. Everything has changed – the sights, the sound, the spirit. He too is not who he was. Is he at the crossroads of history or is it just a bend in the cul-de-sac of his own gloomy nature?

The son of a Holocaust survivor who accuses him of cowardice and the father of a daughter who sees him as complicit in genocide, Draxler fixates on bad news. He shouts at the television. He carries his own tin of paint to cover up graffiti. The staffroom at the primary school of which he is headmaster has become a battlefield of inflamed opinion he does nothing to quiet.

His wife Charmian is a beacon of calm but even she isn't sure she can save Ferdie from himself. 'Don't worry about me,' he tells her. 'I don't have what it takes to go mad.'

'A howling comic masterpiece' Patrick Marber

'Boils with fury and fizzes with life' Jonathan Freedland

'He just gets better and better' Giles Coren

Reseñas de la crítica

A howling comic masterpiece (Patrick Marber)
Bold and brilliant, Howl is Howard Jacobson at his finest. A challenging novel that demands to be read and talked about (Anthony Seldon)
Howard Jacobson’s Howl is fearless, furious and unbearably tender - a darkly comic reckoning with history, identity and what it means to stay sane when the world is coming apart. It's a rare novel that feels absolutely of this moment and is also destined to stand the test of time. (Noreena Hertz)
Historians can tell you why antisemitism happens, but it takes a great novelist to tease out all the ways it makes Jews feel, about the world and about themselves. Howard Jacobson has a unique eye for the combination of pain and absurdity that this ancient hatred brings to bear on Jewish sensibilities, and an irresistible, shocking wit in its telling. (Dave Rich)
Howard Jacobson’s appetite for fiction is insatiable. He just gets better and better (Giles Coren)
Howl set me off reading instantly, gratefully, excitedly, elatedly, non-stop, in awe of its stealing-up-on-you steely wit, its wild ingenuity, its no-stone-unturned command, its devious turnings-out and turnings-up. Yet another bombshell novel - no one writing in English can match Howard Jacobson. He goes where daredevils fear to tread (Cynthia Ozick)
Incredibly profound, beautifully written and - amazingly and essentially - funny (Tanya Gold)
Howl is funny and upsetting and profound. Howard Jacobson is the master chronicler of the Jewish experience at a time when it is needed most. (Matthew Syed)
In his trademark dazzling prose, Jacobson has written what may be the first post-October 7 novel: by turns angry, rueful, provocative and wise, Howl also somehow - and against all the odds - manages to be consistently, defiantly funny. It is a book that boils with fury and fizzes with life (Jonathan Freedland)
Once again Jacobson proves himself one of the great living stylists, a writer who can mine more jagged little truths from a handful of sentences than many of his peers manage in an entire book
