书籍简介

来自获奖的、畅销书《开水》的作者，一部关于父子、信仰和友谊的令人振奋的新小说。

舞蹈是能解决斯蒂芬问题的东西。

在教堂里，他和他的家人一起，在赞美中举起黑色的手，闪闪发光。与他的乐队在一起，制作的音乐不仅讲述他们的艰辛，也讲述他们的快乐。与他要好的朋友一起跳舞，他们的头可能会碰到一起。在他父亲的唱片中独自跳舞，揭开他从未真正了解的一个人的部分。他的青春、羞耻和牺牲。

斯蒂芬只在歌声中了解自己。但是，当音乐消逝时，他变成了什么？

《小世界》是一部关于我们为自己建立的世界的小说，故事发生在三个夏天，从南伦敦到加纳，再回到这里。我们在其中生活、跳舞和爱的世界。

An exhilarating new novel about fathers and sons, faith and friendship from the award-winning, No.1 bestselling author of OPEN WATER

Dancing is the one thing that can solve Stephen's problems.

At Church with his family, the shimmer of Black hands raised in praise. With his band, making music speaking not just to their hardships, but their joys. Grooving with his best friend, so close their heads might touch. Dancing alone to his father's records, uncovering parts of a man he has never truly known. His youth, shame and sacrifice.

Stephen has only ever known himself in song. But what becomes of him when the music fades?

Set over the course of three summers, from South London to Ghana and back again, SMALL WORLDS is a novel about the worlds we build for ourselves. The worlds we live, dance and love within.
