Spurv

Slaven Jacob – ogsĂ„ kendt som Spurv – vokser op pĂ„ et bordel i Carthago Nova i Spanien i Romerrigets sidste Ă„r. Som voksen ser han tilbage pĂ„ sin umenneskelige barndom: som forĂŠldrelĂžs var han overladt til det barske liv pĂ„ bunden af samfundet, det hĂ„rde slid i vĂŠrtshuset og blandt de prostituerede. Men trods vold, forfald og lidelse finder Spurv bĂ„de kĂŠrlighed, venskab og Ăžmhed. Og hans fantasi og hans sang lindrer den brutale virkelighed.

"Spurv" er en betagende roman om slaveri og sammenhold i Romerriget og en livsbekrĂŠftende historie om overlevelse.

Om forfatteren:

James Hynes (f. 1955) har skrevet seks romaner, "Spurv" er hans fÞrste pÄ dansk. Han har skrevet essays og anmeldelser for New York Times, Washington Post, Boston Review og Salon. Han bor i Austin, Texas.
