A Fool's Alphabet by Sebastian Faulks

A Fool's Alphabet by Sebastian Faulks

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Ambitious and beautifully crafted' THE TIMES 'Faulks writes with great emotional authority' SUNDAY TIMES Amidst the letters of the alphabet, a life reveals itself. Flashing backwards and forwards through time, we meet Pietro Russell. As a photographer in Sri Lanka, a schoolboy in Fulham and even before he was born to his wounded English father and young Italian mother. The extraordinary moments of Pietro's life are navigated with unique imagination, giving the reader a chance to view a life from a new and moving vantage point. A Fool's Alphabet is a novel of true invention from a master storyteller that sees life in all of its compelling, poignant glory.

“A Fool’s Alphabet is a poignant and highly readable novel that runs the gamut of experience from well, from A to Z”
–Herald

“Sebastian Faulks’s third and most magnificent novel is a feel-good experience from cover to cover. At a time when writers seem obliged to present the seedy or the wicked as reflections of the dirty, real world, we have here something that goes deeper than greed and explores our emotional rather than material being.”
–Daily Mail
