A Possible Life by Sebastian Faulks

A Possible Life by Sebastian Faulks

In Second World War Poland, a young prisoner closes his eyes and pictures going to bat on a sunlit English cricket ground . . . Across the yard of a Victorian poorhouse, a man is too ashamed to acknowledge the son he gave away . . . In a 19th-century French village, an old servant understands -- suddenly and with awe -- the meaning of the Bible story her master is reading to her . . . On a summer evening in the Catskills in 1971, a skinny girl steps out of a Chevy with a guitar and with a song that will send shivers through her listeners' skulls . . . A few years from now, in Italy, a gifted scientist discovers links between time and the human brain and between her lover's novel and his life.

Sebastian Faulks is the author of ten novels. They include the UK number one bestseller A Week in December; Human Traces; On Green Dolphin Street; Charlotte Gray, which was made into a film starring Cate Blanchett; and the classic Birdsong, which has sold more than three million copies and was recently adapted for television. In 2008, he was invited to write a James Bond novel, Devil May Care, to mark the centenary of Ian Fleming. In between books he wrote and presented the four-part television series Faulks on Fiction for the BBC. He lives in London with his wife and their three children.
