Sebastian Barry has won the Costa Book of the Year Award, the Hughes & Hughes Irish Novel of the Year Award, and the Walter Scott Prize. His work has twice been short-listed for the Man Booker Prize. He is the author of six previous novels and lives in Ireland.
“I am thinking of the days without end of my life. And it is not like that now.”
From the two-time Man Booker Prize finalist Sebastian Barry, “a master storyteller” (Wall Street Journal), comes a powerful new novel of duty and family set against the American Indian and Civil Wars
Thomas McNulty, aged barely seventeen and having fled the Great Famine in Ireland, signs up for the U.S. Army in the 1850s. With his brother in arms, John Cole, Thomas goes on to fight in the Indian Wars—against the Sioux and the Yurok—and, ultimately, the Civil War. Orphans of terrible hardships themselves, the men find these days to be vivid and alive, despite the horrors they see and are complicit in.
Moving from the plains of Wyoming to Tennessee, Sebastian Barry’s latest work is a masterpiece of atmosphere and language. An intensely poignant story of two men and the makeshift family they create with a young Sioux girl, Winona, Days Without End is a fresh and haunting portrait of the most fateful years in American history and is a novel never to be forgotten.

Love expressed through the slightest and the least grammatical words.
评分续集快上市了,看看第一本,有点意思。文字很有特色,但我不会用优美来形容。

评分R4 read by Stanley Townsend. 功课没做好,泛读不及格
评分You don’t need good grammar to write beautiful prose and tell a story that touches the soul, 这才是真正的stylist writing, 我之前看的都是什么玩意儿(还对exit west hold很深的grudge),看哭了,新年第一读,一本满足。#1
