Description

The Betrayers by David Bezmozgis is a searing novel about a man whose principles are tested to the utmost extremes

'Impressive . . . alive to how reversals of fortune change individuals' Sunday Times

In a small crumbling resort in the Crimea, two men meet after many years apart. Kotler has fled Jerusalem with his young lover after taking a decision which has now cost him everything. Yet the other, Vladimir, would rather discuss the distant past: a long time ago, Kotler was betrayed and imprisoned - and now there must be a reckoning. With the world on his trail, Kotler would like nothing better than to hide. However, the consequences of decisions old and new return to haunt him . . .
