See Now Then by Jamaica Kincaid
‘If revenge is a dish best served cold, See Now Then is a baked alaska in reverse, chilling on the outside, screaming hot at the center’ - New York Times Mr and Mrs Sweet live in a house in the small town of Bennington, New England. While Mr Sweet grew up in the dining rooms of the Plaza Hotel and in the audience of the city ballet, Mrs Sweet arrived in the United States on a banana boat, sailing from Dominica. A blazing, unflinching portrait of a couple trying to make sense of the relationship they’ve settled for, See Now Then is the first novel in a decade from Jamaica Kincaid, one of today’s most celebrated writers. Now in the Picador Collection.
