Overview
A TALE OF A TRAGEDY SEEPING THROUGH GENERATIONS, AND A FAMILY FRACTURED BY HISTORY AND DESIRE Bad Relations is an amazing achievement and one of the most satisfying books youre likely to read this year The TimesHaunting and beautiful... In recent British fiction I can thinkonly of Tessa Hadley who rivals Connolly in exacting such intricate, compelling drama from close-knit families... I dont often wish a book were longer, but this one I did ObserverOn the battlefields of the Crimea, William Gale cradles the still-warm body of his brother. Williams experience of war will bring about a change in him that will reverberate through his family over the next two centuries.In the 1970s, Williams descendants invite Stephen, a distant relation, to stay in their house in the English countryside - but their golden summer entanglements will end in a shocking fall from grace.Half a century later, a confrontation between the surviving members of the family will culminate in a terrible reckoning.The characters in Bad Relations are so brilliantly real, so wonderfully compelling at their best, and at their worst, that I cant get them out of my head. A wonderful novel Nina StibbeThis is an Atonement-like novel about the messy stuff that is family life Spectator
