Dream Sequence - Tapa dura
Críticas:
"Pitch-perfect sentence by pitch-perfect sentence, Foulds weaves a quiet but harrowing tale of obsession that takes the reader into the characters’ tragic downward spiral – Dream Sequence is as good a novel as I have read in a while." (Lawrence Osborne, author of Beautiful Animals)
"Incisively well-written and alluringly readable... This prose is truly poetic, being concise, not impasto... This novel moves like a thriller... A terrific book about the realities and delusion of fame distorting the way we live now: not to be missed." (Evening Standard)
"Adam Foulds is the real deal... it’s the details of the writing itself – the precision of the word selection combined with the precision of the observation – that make for such enjoyable reading." (Edward Docx Guardian)
"This mordantly clever story about fame, fantasy and narcissism... is deliciously funny... Foulds is a very fine writer." (Johanna Thomas-Corr Observer)
"An exquisitely concocted, riveting account of artistic ambition and unrequited love... Foulds is proving himself to be a very versatile writer of intelligence and charm." (Spectator)
"Everyone loves a good page-turner full of aspirational scene-setting, but few literary novelists dare to try it... [Dream Sequence] is a sexy, celeby drama... just like The Great Gatsby, this novel billows around you like a queasy dream, its grand scenery and awful characters combining to take us out of the real world and into another, oddly shimmering version of it." (Melissa Katsoulis The Times)
"A nuanced, original and sharply observed study of fame and power... [a] spare and beautifully written novel." (Stephanie Cross Daily Mail)
"Foulds's observations are spot-on and his prose is delicious sharp." (Economist, 1843)
"Funny, dramatic and poignant. The final five pages of the novel resolve in a masterly poetic unification of suspense and feeling. Adam Foulds... has won many literary awards and this new work deserves to win another." (Lindsay Duguid Tablet)
"Absorbing and beautifully written, Foulds’ novel is particularly illuminating on the actor’s craft and the nature of fame." (Anthony Gardner Mail on Sunday)

Henry Banks, a brilliant but narcissistic young actor, is prepared to go to any length for a role, to capitalise on his successes in television drama by securing the lead in the latest film by a celebrated Spanish director. He is on the brink of the next step – very close to achieving intellectual credibility and some serious celebrity.
However, Henry has – unwittingly – become an important part of the life of recently-divorced Kristin: someone who is also on the brink. Sitting in her beautiful, empty Philadelphia home, Kristin is obsessed with the handsome English actor and convinced they are destined to be together. She resolves to fly to London and bring their relationship to fruition.
Dream Sequence explores what it is to live at our current moment, with its porous borders between the inner and the outer life, and is a stunning, terrifying drama about psychological damage, stalking, and the perils of celebrity.
