SINOPSE
Set in an un-named city but with an astonishing, breath-shorteningly palpable sense of time and place Milkman is a tale of gossip and hearsay, silence and deliberate deafness. The story of inaction with enormous consequences and decisions that are never made, but for which people are judged and punished.Middle sister is our protagonist. She is busy attempting to keep her mother from discovering her nearly-boyfriend and to keep everyone in the dark about her encounter with milkman (which she herself for the life of her cannot work out how it came about).
But when first brother-in-law, who of course had sniffed it out, told his wife, her first sister, to tell her mother to come and have a talk with her, middle sister becomes 'interesting'. The last thing she ever wanted to be. To be interesting is to be noticed and to be noticed is dangerous.Milkman is a searingly honest novel told in prose that is as precise and unsentimental as it is devastating and brutal.
A novel that is at once unlocated and profoundly tethered to place is surely a novel for our times.

OPINIÃO DOS LEITORES
Um clássico moderno
Ana C. Oliveira
Vencedor do Man Booker 2019, Milkman é uma obra complexa, por vezes difícil de acompanhar, mas é uma história muito importante e que precisa de ser contada. Situado na Irlanda do Norte num passado muito recente, Milkman é uma história sobre pessoas, sobre o terrorismo (físico e psicológico), sobre sonhos e sobre boatos. Porque os problemas do passado são os problemas do presente. Completamente merecido!
Milkman - O merecido vencedor do Man Booker Prize 2018
CB
Um livro surpreendente, que nos leva para a Irlanda do Norte dos anos 70, onde entre checkpoints, bombas e duas religiões distintas, uma rapariga de 18 anos se encontra no centro de um rumor. Numa época em que o melhor para todos era que ninguém soubesse o seu nome, as atenções voltam-se perigosamente para si. Será que conseguirá sobreviver? Há rumores que podem ser fatais...
