Items related to Knowing Max
Haunting novel about time and identity set in post-war ‘fast set’ Britain.
A brilliant new novel that is quite different from the wonderful Ferney but which has some of the same qualities. Memory and coincidence play a strong part as the narrator, himself trying to escape a passionate relationship, endeavours to piece together the remarkable life of the man who used to own an old trunk, stuffed with letters, bought in a street market. Racing driver, lover, officer, but maybe not gentleman, con-man, liar, thief – as the fascinating portrait of the trunk’s owner evolves, so the narrator is drawn deeper and deeper into a story with strange connections to his own life.

Review:
Praise for Ferney:
‘A story of love and self-discovery that resonates across the ages’
Nicholas Evans, author of The Horse Whisperer
‘The book grips... It belongs to the unputdownable, so goodbye sleep. I love it... the whole story sang’
Mary Wesley
‘The book is a lovely puzzle, exploring landscape and the lives that shape it, and a profound comment on the way each generation adapts to change. An ambitious and enthralling novel with distinct echoes of Hardy’
Mail on Sunday
