The second novel in world renowned film-maker, Ingmar Bergman’s trilogy of novels plotting the fractious marriage of his parents

The second novel in world renowned film-maker, Ingmar Bergman’s trilogy of novels plotting the fractious marriage of his parents

Over the course of one summer, eight-year-old Pu Bergman makes the terrible realisation that his father and mother are no longer in love. Surrounded by the quiet idyll of the Swedish countryside, with its ponds, its rivers and woods, the daily chaos of the family’s ramshackle summer home threatens to bring to a close the bright, brilliant haze of Pu’s childhood world.

Based upon film-maker Ingmar Bergman’s own family life, Sunday’s Children is the second part in Bergman’s loose trilogy of books that started with The Best Intentions, and closes with Private Confessions.

Praise for Sunday's Children

Because every line is saturated with juice, with the sense of life, you feel, in addition to life as it is, life as it ought to be

John McGahern, New York Times Book Review

This haunting, autobiographical work is highly recommended for serious fiction and film collections

Library Journal

In words, as in cinematic images, Bergman shapes settings and characters that immediately come alive and subtly express the depths of human emotion and experience

Houston Chronicle
