A family struggles for redemption after a funeral brings dark secrets to the surface in this novel from the Booker Prize-winning author of The Sea, The Sea. For the first time in years, Edmund Narraway has returned to his childhood home–for the funeral of his mother. The visit rekindles feelings of affection and nostalgia–but also triggers a resurgence of the tensions that caused him to leave in the first place.
As Edmund once again becomes entangled in his family’s web of corrosive secrets, his homecoming tips a precariously balanced dynamic into sudden chaos, in this compelling story of reunion and coming apart from Iris Murdoch, one of the most significant novelists of her generation (The Guardian).
