The Booker Prize-winning author of The Line of Beauty returns with a landmark novel. A story of contemporary England and of the chasm between generations.

Did I have a grievance? Most of us, without looking far, could find something that had harmed us, and oppressed us, and unfairly held us back. I tried not to dwell on it, thought it healthier not to, though I’d lived my short life so far in a chaos of privilege and prejudice.
