Sinopsis
David Grant and his beautiful French wife Elodie are a prosperous, happy couple living in an idyllic village in the Ardhche. It's summer and Elodie has gone on a Buddhist retreat in Paris, and, left to his own devices, her husband takes it into his head to go on what he thinks will be a short trip away. After all, he tells himself, he will easily be back in time to carry out the household tasks he has promised to do during Elodie's absence...And so, harmlessly enough, David Grant begins his journey across France and back to the UK. By turns humorous and melancholy, it becomes a fitful odyssey that leads eventually to his home town of Edinburgh. As he wanders, he finds that more and more of his present life is falling away and that the ghosts of his past are crowding in. With its acute perceptions and unblinking dissection of a body and mind in the process of disintegration, this masterly, darkly beautiful novel enthrals, moves and shocks to its very end.
