About this listen

One September morning in 2008, an investment banker approaching forty, his career in collapse and his marriage unravelling, receives a surprise visitor at his home. He struggles to place the dishevelled figure carrying a backpack until he recognises a friend from his student days, a brilliant man who disappeared years earlier under mysterious circumstances. As the friends begin to talk, a journey begins that is by turns exhilarating, shocking, intimate and strange.

Critic Reviews

"[A]n ambitious and extraordinary achievement.... A novel about the entwining of politics and love and the painful quest for identity…this is a dazzling debut." ( Sunday Times)
"[A] heartbreaking love story and a gripping account of one man's psychological disintegration...an exploration of the post-9/11 world that is both personal and political, epic and intensely moving." ( Observer)
