Product Description

Review

'What is so gripping about O'Brian's novels is the completeness with which he invents a world which is our own and not our own... O'Brian is a brilliant observer.' A.S. Byatt, Evening Standard

Book Description

Patrick O’Brian is now recognised as the greatest historical novelist writing in English. He has been described variously as “Jane Austen – sur mer” and “the greatest novelist you’ve never read”. But at last he is enjoying the recognition he deserves with huge media interest in both him and his books. All the elements that have made Patrick O’Brian’s astonishing series one of the most highly praised works in contemporary fiction are here in Clarissa Oakes – the narrative grip, the impeccable ear for dialogue, the humour and the unsurpassed capacity to create and recreate a rich and true friendship between two men in the late eighteenth-century.
