内容简介 On a street in a town in the North of England, perfectly ordinary people are doing normal things - children play cricket, windows are painted, a couple argues, students pack up their belongings, and nameless people pass each other, interweaving yet never connecting. But a terrible event shatters the quiet of the summer evening and no one who witnesses it will ever be the same again.
作者简介 Jon McGregor lives in Nottingham. He is also the author of So Many Ways to Begin.
