| Description | "The Blind Angel" by Yuz Aleshkovsky is an unusual and powerful book. It remained unfinished, and that gives it a strange extra force. At the centre of the novel is a blind musician and his guardian angel. Through their bond, Aleshkovsky writes about love, suffering, memory and inner vision. It is a story about a man who cannot see the world in an ordinary way, but feels it with great depth. The language is dense and very distinctive. At times it may feel excessive, but it always carries energy and movement. The novel brings together rough speech, lyrical passages and bitter humour. That gives the book a very special sound, and it asks for slow reading. This is hardly a light novel for rest. It feels more like a long conversation with a restless, gifted mind. When it ends, it leaves a strong sense of mystery and sadness. |
