Beskrivning
September 1919: Twenty-year-old Tristan Sadler takes a train from London to Norwich to deliver a clutch of letters to Marian Bancroft. Tristan fought alongside Marian's brother Will during the Great War. They trained together. They fought together.But in 1917, Will laid down his guns on the battlefield and declared himself a conscientious objector, an act which has brought shame and dishonour on the Bancroft family.The letters, however, are not the real reason for Tristan's visit. He holds a secret deep within him. One that he is desperate to unburden himself of to Marian, if he can only find the courage. Whatever happens, this meeting will change his life – forever.

Recensioner i media

Extraordinary... The narrative is by turns surprising and tragic in equal measure while its troubling conclusion will stay with readers long after they've closed the book

  1. 5/5 Jessica R

    John Boyne har en förmåga att skriva på ett sätt så att de verkligen känns. Om du tidigare läst hans The boy in the striped pyjamas så vet du.

    The Absolutist är just så. En berättelse om kärlek med ett slut och en twist som sliter ut ens hjärta. Var beredd säger jag bara på tårar.
