Корабль, море, экзотические страны. И экипаж – люди, «побывавшие во всех углах мира, с неизгладимым отпечатком резкой и бурной судьбы на тёмных от ветра лицах». А среди них – крестьянин Ольсен, равнодушный к «блеску океана», бесконечно тоскующий по «глухой деревне», где живут его сестра, мать и отец; и одолеваемый слуховыми галлюцинациями: «Ольсен, это мы, мы! Скорее вернись к нам!.. Иди и живи зд...

As author, I commenced this volu...
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY D. J. TAYLOR These three brilliant novels span Henry Green's career as a novelist and display his unique talents as a writer. Nothing is a tale of the merry-go-round of love, marriage and infidelity, and the ceaseless tussle of innocence versus experience. Doting sets the middle-aged male infatuation for pretty girls against the comfortable affection of wives and ...
