22.0 x 13.0cms, 278pp very good hardback & dustwrapper One review has written: "It's a fitting way to begin a book that stages its own struggle with inherited conventions of form, genre and style, and cycles speedily, even hastily, through several possible responses. For Communion Town, subtitled "A City in Ten Chapters", the further implication of the motto is that cities are not single but several; they not only change over time but present different versions of themselves to the people who pass through them. "Is it impossible," a character asks, "that among my contemporaries, in the very same streets and lecture theatres, some moved in a rare and secretive world?".

The Man Booker-longlisted novel explores how each of us conjures up our own city. Every city is made of stories: stories that meet and diverge, stories of the commonplace and the strange, of love and crime, of ghosts and monsters. The iridescent, Man Booker longlisted Communion Town is reminiscent of David Mitchell's Ghostwritten and Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities, it is the story of a place that never looks the same way twice: a place imagined anew by each citizen who walks through the changing streets among voices half-heard, signs half-glimpsed and desires half-acknowledged. This is the story of a city. Hardcover, Label: Fourth Estate, Fourth Estate, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 2012-07-01, Studio: Fourth Estate, Verkaufsrang: 2946086.

Each of us conjures our own city, one of many incarnations; a place throbbing with so many layers, meanings, and hidden corners cannot be the same for any two citizens. "Communion Town" calls to mind David Mitchell's "Ghostwritten," Italo Calvino's "Invisible Cities," and China Mieville's "The City & The City," but is uniquely its own. This incandescent novel maps an imaginary city and explores the lives of its outcasts and scapegoats. Each chapter is told from the perspective of a different citizen--defining the city itself as a character, both protagonist and antagonist--and each is told in a different genre, from a hardboiled detective story to steampunk to gothic horror, displaying the great range of Sam Thompson's literary ability. As the novel unfolds in different neighborhoods, we encounter a lovelorn folksinger, a repressed detective, a slaughterhouse worker, a lost tourist, a bon vivant, and a ghost. From their lonely voices we gather the many-faceted story of the city: a place imagined differently by each citizen as he or she searches for connection, transformation, or escape.".
