The Bee Sting PDF by Paul Murray is a caustic family chronicle… A saga of a family gradually growing dysfunctional… Three generations… Four narrators…
Cass… A daughter is a teenage schoolgirl… She and her friend are full of sweet dreams and far-reaching plans…
On the way home Elaine told Cass she was going to post her poem on her Instagram. She had discovered that there was a new generation of lady poets who posted their poems online and got millions of views. They wrote about real-life issues, like racism and homophobia, and were friends with singers, influencers and other celebrities. You could actually become seriously famous from poetry, Elaine noted.
But physiology and hormones of youth win over her…
PJ… A preteen schoolboy… He – similar to the majority of mankind now – is a slave of his mobile phone… He is a freaking gamer…
More Nazis rise up out of the floor to block the way; their withered hands reach and spread till they fill the screen, like bare tree branches. Then a curtain of blood falls to cover everything.
He is full of his own anxiety and his own phobias…
Imelda… A beautiful mother recalls the days of her troubled adolescence and youth… One fine evening she suddenly sees a true love of her life…
Nothing to stop the boy as he came towards her
It seemed the crowd parted to let him through Heads turned to follow him Even in the gammy light of Pap’s his eyes were clear blue like mountain pools and when she looked into them everything around seemed to dim to nothing like it had turned to steam
What’s a girl like you doing in this kip he said
But things not always add up the way one wishes… So everything goes crashing down…
Dickie… A miserable father… He recollects the time when he was a student… And a skeleton crawls out of the cupboard… Dickie is defeated by ruthless life… He looks for a place to hide from the world…
That life is behind you. The story is over, the debt is paid, the darkness of those years dispelled. And the person that remains, the man here in the woods – is you.
The world isn’t just a vanity fair – it is also a futility fair.
