Quarantine by Jim Crace

Quarantine by Jim Crace

Judea about 2000 years ago. There were five of them, not in a group, but strung out along a road. Three men, a woman, and too far behind for anyone to guess its gender, a fifth. This fifth one was barefooted and without a staff.

JIM CRACE is the author of eleven previous novels. His most recent, Harvest, was short-listed for the Man Booker Prize and won the International Dublin Literary Award and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. In 2000, Being Dead won the U.S. National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction, and in 1997, Quarantine was named the Whitbread Novel of the Year and was short-listed for the Booker Prize. Jim Crace has also received the Whitbread First Novel Prize, the E. M. Forster Award, and the Guardian Fiction Prize. He lives in England.
