réf. 9788532531469ROCCO. new. Londres segunda metade do s�culo XIX. Sue Trinder �rf� de nascen�a cresceu numa �rea degradada da cidade junto a uma fam�lia onde eram ""todos mais ou menos ladr�es"". Sob o comando da sra. Suckby a matriarca o grupo passava os dias entre pequemos delitos - vivendo de furto em furto na ponta dos dedos. De uma hora para outra no entanto o destino de Sue se conecta ao de outra �rf� - esta morando num casar�o sinistro num campo n�o t�o distante. Finalista do Man Booker Prize e do Orange Prize Na ponta dos dedos � um dos mais prestigiados livros da brit�nica Sarah Waters autora de Os h�spedes. Remetendo a Charles Dickens Jane Austen e ��s irm�s Bront�� Waters cria sob um olhar contempor�neo um impactante romance vitoriano que congrega mist�rio erotismo e reconstitui��o de �poca numa narrativa impec�vel. . E embora Na ponta dos dedos remeta com muito estilo e propriedade �� literatura vitoriana seu subtexto n�o poderia ser mais atual abordando com liberdade quest�es de sexualidade g�nero e classe. A tudo isso se soma um trabalho sofisticado de constru��o de personagens descri��es de encher os olhos ambienta��o atmosf�rica aten��o minuciosa aos detalhes hist�ricos di�logos precisos e um texto com o raro dom de ser t�o virtuoso e elegante quanto extremamente fluido. Todo esse apuro ali�s foi um prato cheio para o cinema: em 2016 o romance transposto para a Cor�ia do Sul durante a d�cada de 1930 foi adaptado para as telas como A criada produ��o dirigida pelo aclamado Park Chan-wook de Oldboy que concorreu �� Palma de Ouro no Festival de Cannes.
