Opis: Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit - Jeanette Winterson

A beautiful hardback edition of Jeanette Winterson`s explosive first novel: a gripping coming-of-age story, a queer romance, a modern classic.`I love her.``Then you do not love the Lord.``Yes, I love both of them.``You cannot.``I do.``This is the story of Jeanette, born to be one of God`s elect: adopted by a fanatical Pentecostal family and ablaze with her own zeal for the scriptures, she seems perfectly suited for the life of a missionary. But then she converts Melanie, and realises she loves this woman almost as much as she loves the Lord. How on Earth could her Church called that passion Unnatural?Both a groundbreaking coming-of-age novel and a pioneering work of autofiction, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit goes beyond facts into the deepest truths. Searing and tender, playful and provocative, it is a portrait of the artist as a young evangelist, re-writing her own Bible.`Witty... extraordinary and exhilarating` - The Times`She is a master of her material, a writer in whom great talent abides` - Vanity Fair`Many consider her to be the best living writer in this language... In her hands, words are fluid, radiant, humming` - Evening StandardVintage Quarterbound Classics: Bound to be beautiful
