Review
"An astonishing study of forms of guilt, laced with a thread of detection--and outrageous humor." -The Sunday Times (London)
"A world that is half Kafka, half Orwell--joined on a cord of elegant, tough, swift writing." -San Francisco ExaminerFrom the Publisher
Intense psychological thriller from 1996 Booker Prize winner
Intense psychological thriller by Graham Swift, winner of the 1996 Booker Prize, from his backlist, brilliantly rejacketed by Picador in 1997. An unnerving study of power and inadequacy; and the manipulations of family and work life. "One of his generation's finest, with an imagination of rare immediacy and vitality" The Times; "A born storyteller" Daily Telegraph
