Ghost MacIndoe by Jonathan Buckley

Ghost MacIndoe by Jonathan Buckley

Ghost MacIndoe is a bold and ambitious novel that focuses on the life of Alexander MacIndoe, a self-centred man who is characterised only by his physical beauty and a complete lack of will.

‘The mood is subdued, but the accumulated effect of his descriptions is deceptively powerful…Although “Ghost MacIndoe” celebrates the virtues of self-possession, it is as a meditation on the nature of memory itself that it makes its most lasting impression’ Sunday Times

‘Elegiac, beautifully written and compelling. Buckley’s novel is a fine achievement.’ Christina Koning, The Times

‘The story is lifted by Buckley’s exceptionally vivid powers of description. It is the work of a writer of considerable talent.’ Melissa Denes, Sunday Telegraph

‘The quality of attention Jonathan Buckley brings to his material deserves to be called poetic…his story makes a good deal of other contemporary fiction look empty.’ Sean O'Brien, TLS

Jonathan Buckley lives in Greenwich, London. He is the author of two previous novels. The Biography of Thomas Lang was published in 1997 and Xerxes in 1999.
