About This Item
US: Atlantic, 2012. Very Good. August, 1924: John Conrad arrives at his parents' home on the outskirts of Canterbury, where family and friends are assembling for the bank holiday we ekend. His crippled mother has been discharged from a nursing home, his bro ther drives down from London with wife and child. But as the guests converg e, John's father dies. Today follows the numb implications of sudden death: the surprise, the shock, the deep fissures in a family exposed through gri ef. But there is also laughter, fraud, and theft; the continuation of life, all viewed through the eyes of Lilian Hallowes--John's father's secretary- -never quite at the center of things but always observing, the still point in a turning world. Today is a remarkable debut, an investigation of bereav ement, family, and Englishness, beautiful in its understatement and profoun d in its psychological acuity.
