Colum McCann
The debut novel from National Book Award winner and Booker nominee Colum McCann
'Colum McCann conjures a hugely inventive debut' Observer
‘McCann writes equally well about Ireland, America and Mexico, and he links past and present in a finely woven narrative: Songdogs is a vivid, beautifully measured book’ Sunday Times
__________________
Colum McCann's first novel goes back to the years before the Spanish Civil War, following the adventures of a peripatetic Irish photographer from the war-strewn shores of Europe to the exotic plains of Mexico.
The story is told in the words of the photographer's only son, a wanderer himself, who uses his father's unreliable memories and the fading remnants of his art to piece together his family history and explain the mystery surrounding his mother – a Mexican beauty brought back by his father to Ireland.©1995 Colum McCann (P)2021 Penguin Random House LLC

Reseñas de la crítica
Colum McCann conjures a hugely inventive debut
McCann writes intense, gripping prose full of sharp and telling details. He can draw a complete psychological portrait from the most minor situations … Songdogs is an exciting book, because it vibrates with the energy of a new writer finding his voice
A true work of art
Potent, sometimes astonishing, fuelled by a unique descriptive vision – the simplicity and power of the final two pages of Songdogs form one of the most technically and lyrically accomplished conclusions to a novel, debut or otherwise, I have ever read
Songdogs is an event in Irish writing
An arresting new voice from out of Ireland, at once deep and dazzling (Edna O’Brien)
Powerful ... wistful and gracefully shadowed ... The author has a keen eye and ear; his language is full of sparkling poetry and images
Positively vibrates ... consistently engaging ... remarkably beautiful
McCann has unusual control over his material ... McCann’s take on the New World is fresh and often amusing, but what we remember most is the poignancy
