O knihe
First published in 1965, "The Island of Apples" is a brilliant account of a pre-adolescent boy's romantic imagination and dangerous enthrallment, set vividly in industrial south Wales and rural Carmarthenshire in the early twentieth century. In the novel, the life of Dewi Davies is suddenly altered by the appearance of a stranger in his valley town, a youth from a seemingly glamorous background who possesses all that Dewi finds lacking in his own restricted existence."The theme is the departure of youth and Glyn Jones has translated it into despairing action and marvelous natural imagery which convey, as strongly as I have ever experienced it, the sense of loss."--"Observer"
