In the void left by this incomprehensible loss, the family is shaped by a succession of men who move in and out of their lives. Deconstructing the enormous, destructive power unleashed by suicide, Glenn Bech attempts to find a language for a past that refuses to be remembered. Through fragments of poetry, letters, and home-video transcripts, The Fathership is a brutal and dazzling work of social realism that stretches the definitions of autofiction to breaking point; a sorrowful and furious documentation of a family in crisis and a psychological search for a father known only through his absence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bookmarked","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55517855351121,"sku":"9781913513924","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1073\/9472\/8273\/files\/fathership.jpg?v=1793182429","url":"https:\/\/bookmarkedbristol.com\/products\/the-fathership-by-glenn-bech-trans-hazel-evans","provider":"Bookmarked","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
