Review
"In a class of its own. Completely honest, deadpan, funny, and shrewdly intelligent . . . a journey you will never forget." —William Boyd, author, A Good Man in Africa
"Something for the 21st century." —Graham Greene, author, The End of the Affair
"An absolute knockout. Brilliant, passionate, and very alarming." —Michael Ratcliffe, staff writer, The Observer
"A classic of English eccentricity." —John Fuller, author, Now and for a Time
Product Description
This extraordinary roller-coaster ride into deepest England begins as a mysterious thriller, when an unknown woman arrives at a silent village in the dead of night. But the plot takes on a wild, unpredictable energy, as her search for love draws her into lives on conflicting journeys of their own. As though Evelyn Waugh and William Burroughs had somehow collided in the 21st century, this novel is sometimes shocking but surprisingly warm-hearted, and has already been hailed as a comic masterpiece.
