The Beautiful Indifference, Paperback / softback Book

The Beautiful Indifference Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

'Fierce and sensuous.' Guardian 'Exquisitely crafted.' Sunday Telegraph 'Astonishing . . . A writer of rare vision and talent.' Sunday Times From the speed and heat of summer London, to the heathered fells and lowlands of Cumbria with their history of smouldering violence, to an eerily still lake in the Finnish wilderness, Sarah Hall evokes landscapes with extraordinary precision and grace.

The characters within these territories are real-life survivors, but whether it's a frustrated housewife seeking extreme experience or a young woman contemplating the death of her lover, dark devices and desires rise to the surface. And the human body, too - flawed, visceral, and full of emotional conflict - provides a sensuous frame for each unfolding drama. Uniquely disturbing and deeply erotic, this collection confirms Sarah Hall as one of the greatest writers of her generation.
