Brown Douglas H.

    George Douglas Brown était un romancier écossais, surtout connu pour son très influent roman réaliste The House with the Green Shutters (1901). Cette œuvre, publiée l'année précédant sa mort à l'âge de 33 ans, est saluée pour son réalisme brut et son portrait perspicace de la vie dans un village écossais. Le style distinctif de Brown et sa capacité à capturer des émotions humaines complexes ont laissé une marque indélébile dans la littérature.

      The brutish John Gourlay is a merchant in the village of Barbie, envied and resented by the villagers because of his success, which is symbolised in his prestigious house with green shutters. He dominates and bullies his family, in particular his gifted, sensitive but weak son. Ultimately, his refusal to acknowledge the arrival of the railway and to adapt to the increasing industrialisation of Ayrshire precipitates murder, suicide and his family's tragic downfall.

      What started out as a way to address dealing with parenting and, in particular, fatherhood, became a series of poems focused on familial roles and situations that are difficult to articulate, even among family members. The poems in Zero to Three mark both the change in the child and in the father, who is also a son himself.
