Sadler's Birthday by Rose Tremain

Sadler's Birthday by Rose Tremain

Today is Jack Sadler's birthday. Or is it? He's not sure, he doesn't really care. It might be his last day or the beginning of a new chapter in his life. He must find the key to his old room. He knows the truth about his past lies there and somehow he must get in and confront it.

Sadler's Birthday is as far from the stereotype of a young woman's first novel as it can beIt is a masterly study of a lonely but loyal man that is deeply felt, intelligent and often touchingly funny. I liked it very much -- Angus Wilson

This is a writer whose breadth of imagination and supple prose transcend the genre: she is one of the finest writers in English * Daily Telegraph *
She is a magical storyteller - it is as an artist that she excels * New Statesman *
