Sebastian Faulks has written nineteen books, of which A Week in December and The Fatal Englishman were number one in the Sunday Times bestseller lists. He is best known for Birdsong, part of his French trilogy, and Human Traces, the first in an ongoing Austrian trilogy. Before becoming a full-time writer, he worked as a journalist on national papers. He has also written screenplays and has appeared in small roles on stage. He lives in London.
This is a genuinely thought-provoking piece of fiction. You could
devour it in a day and be wholly transported into the near future,
then set it back down, dazed but enlightened, in the present day
where you will see the world anew in all its wonders and
frailties
*The Times*
A stunning novel: profoundly moving, deeply unsettling,
thought-provoking and prescient but also a wonderful and
life-affirming love story too
*James Holland*
Once I had started I literally could not stop. It really is his
greatest novel yet, and of course beautifully written in that
wonderful, understated style
*Antony Beevor*
Faulks is one of the most original and compelling writers in the
world. This enthralling novel is right up there among his very
finest work
*Peter James*
A completely fascinating and extraordinary novel. A profound and
moving examination of our complex human nature
*William Boyd*
