Graham swift waterland review
Marriot s way outside norwich. This is tom crick a south london history teacher who is about to be retired under the guise of phasing out history in the school but really for personal reasons that will become apparent. Crick is played in the film by jeremy irons as a man whose brow is permanently creased with pain and whose wife sinead cusack has gone mad in her own way and stolen a baby from in front of a convenience store. Thomas crick a balding quinquagenarian is an english schoolmaster a history teacher who s about to be let go 8212 partly because the school s history program is being phased out partly because crick s unhinged wife has been seized for child napping a local scandal and partly because crick has allowed his classes to become free associative storytelling sessions. His story is told in waterland based on a 1983 novel by graham swift that is set entirely in england the transfer to pittsburgh is a mystery but not a serious distraction. So i pulled my copy from the shelf. Here then british. In this extract he talks about the 1983 novel waterland by graham swift. For those unfamiliar with the book waterland concerns the history of two east anglian families the cricks and the atkinsons separated by social class and wealth but linked by a tragic secret. Graham swift is one of the best writers in english and this books is just way better than his other excellent stuff. Wet but not waterland. It is a mystery a novel a history or eeling and beer making on the fens and a romance. The flat wet world that that graham swift brings to such vivid life in waterland.
