Spinning Heart
About This Novel
The structure is clever, and the novel is written in the form of a short story. The 21 characters and 21 chapters are all unfolded in the first person's self-narration, which is equivalent to 21 self-portraits. It can also be called another multi-voice narrative. It can be entered from any story or character or from any location in the book. In the wind, it will still turn. It crunched, crunched, crunched as I moved away. This mottled, crunching, whirling heart. Ireland's "falling sky", the financial system collapsed, social crises are everywhere, everyone is facing the struggle with their inner desires... Bobby, Josie, Lily, Vasya, Leo Ting... 21 Hearts are crunching and spinning. 21 People, with different experiences and identities, struggle to tell their own truths, and each true and intertwined story gradually unfolds. Ryan uses a unique narrative voice to show the complexity of human nature and express the thoughts of a generation with incredible perception. This novel about Irish rural life is bold in approach and the story is witty, dark, sweet and spicy.
