À propos de ce produit

Product Information

John Kennedy Toole, who won a posthumous Pulitzer Prize for his best-selling comic masterpieceA Confederacy of Dunces, wroteThe Neon Biblefor a literary contest at the age of sixteen. The manuscript languished in a drawer and became the subject of a legal battle among Toole's heirs. It was only in 1989, thirty-five years after it was written and twenty years after Toole's suicide at thirty-one, that this amazingly accomplished and evocative novel was freed for publication.The Neon Bibletells the story of David, a young boy growing up in a small Southern town in the 1940s. David's voice is perfectly calibrated, disarmingly funny, sad, shrewd, gathering force from page to page with an emotional directness that never lapses into sentimentality. Through it we share his awkward, painful, universally recognizable encounter with first love, we participate in boy evangelist Bobbie Lee Taylor's revival, we meet the pious, bigoted townspeople. From the opening lines ofThe Neon Bible,David is fully alive, naive yet sharply observant, drawing us into his world through the sure artistry of John Kennedy Toole.

Reviews
"Heartfelt emotion, communicated in clean direct prose . . . a remarkable achievement."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "A powerful novel that belongs on the shelf with the works of Flannery O'Connor, Carson McCullers, and Eudora Welty. It is a moving evocation of the small-town South in the mid-twentieth century, and it is an expertly crafted tale of an adolescent boy finding the courage to make the decisions to change his life."--William McKeen, Orlando Sentinel "John Kennedy Toole's tender, nostalgic side is as brilliantly effective as his corrosive satire. If you liked To Kill A Mockingbird you will love The Neon Bible ."--Florence King "Shockingly mature. . . . Even at sixteen, Toole knew that the way to write about complex emotions is to express them simply."--Kerry Luft, Chicago Tribune, "Heartfelt emotion, communicated in clean direct prose . . . a remarkable achievement."-Michiko Kakutani,The New York Times "A powerful novel that belongs on the shelf with the works of Flannery O'Connor, Carson McCullers, and Eudora Welty.

    One hysterical and one developing talent

    In The Confederacy of Dunces, you read about wonderful flawed New Orleans characters. Having lived in and around New Orleans must of my adult life, I am fascinated how I hardly find a redeeming quality in any of the characters including the protagonist, but could not put this hysterical book down. Of course they are over exaggerated, and the situations absurd, but I find that I can visualize the scenarios easily. The prose and description are filled with essential language and realistic scenery. I have walked in the setting before. The other book, Neon Bible is a book created by a burgeoning talent.

    A sensitive read

    In reading A Confederacy of Dunces, a brilliant comic portrayal of narcissism, codependency, and other outlandish ways we humans live our lives, I became fascinated with John Kennedy Toole. The Neon Bible, written when he was an adolescent, demonstrates sensitivity, observational skills, and an ability to describe inner and outer reality that are surprising in such a young writer. I was touched by the story and charmed to have read it.

    Well written story with surprise ending.

    Surprisingly well written considering Toole was fifteen when he wrote it. The story line will keep your interest. It really takes you inside the head of an adolescent male and lets you experience his trials and tribulations. It ends too soon. It is a must read for anyone who enjoyed "A Confederacy of Dunces".

    A must read for all and sundry!

    Wow! Totally different from the only other book he wrote! This has a bit of Faolkner and McCullers, as might be expected from a 16 year old student. The ruthlessness is new; and, jarring. He is evolving! What would the future have held; after Confederacy of Dunces? At least, his mother did not have to clean up after him! He was considerate. Sharon Agte
