John of John Signed Edition
Douglas Stuart
This is a signed edition of the stunning new novel from the Booker Prize-winning, Sunday Times-bestselling author of SHUGGIE BAIN and YOUNG MUNGO. An Oprah's Book Club pick'You finish the novel feeling emotionally enriched and slightly bereft at leaving its characters behind' The Sunday Times'This book is special' - Colm Toibin'Passionate, liberating, and gorgeous' - Min Jin Lee 'Brilliant and rare' - Ann Patchett'A masterpiece' - Elaine Feeney'A fierce, glorious sting of a novel' - Lauren GroffOut of money and with little to show for his art school education, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry home to the island of Harris to find that not much has changed except for him. In the windswept croft where he grew up, Cal resumes his old life, caught between the two poles of his childhood: his father John, a sheep farmer, weaver, and pillar of their local Presbyterian church, and his Glaswegian grandmother Ella, who has kept a faltering peace with her son-in-law for decades. While Cal wonders if any lonely men might be found on the barren hillsides of home, John is dismayed by his son's long hair and how he seems unwilling to be Saved. As the seasons pass, everything is poised to change as the threads holding together the fragile community become increasingly entangled. 'Stuart’s most consummate work of literature to date' - ObserverTold in beautiful, thoughtful prose that transports readers to lives and locales they will never know' - FT'Intimate yet epic in scale . .
