Articoli correlati a Instances of the Number 3
The much anticipated new novel from the bestselling author of ‘Miss Garnet’s Angel’. Salley Vickers has been hailed as the new Penelope Fitzgerald by critics and readers alike.
Bridget Hansome and Frances Slater have only one thing in common. And that's Peter Hansome, who has died suddenly. Without their husband or lover, the women find that before they can rebuild their lives they must look to themselves and unravel mysteries that they had never before even suspected. So begins an unlikely alliance between wife and mistress and a voyage of discovery that is as comic as it is profound.
INSTANCES OF THE NUMBER 3 is a funny, beguiling exploration of love, bereavement, Shakespeare, illusion and the impossibility of escaping your past.
‘Compulsive, like the Sultan listening to Scheherazade.’ John Bayley
