Beskrivning

A post-modern puzzle about self and identity.Alexander embarks on a remarkable experiment, the likes of which no one has attempted before, maybe that's why there is a detective watching him. With Penny, Alexander is a gadfly, mucking her about, unable to see past her beauty; but with Melanie, he has met his match. It is remarkable how quickly the mood shifts from talk of big questions (religion, God, beauty, how mirrors lie) to the perfectly ordinary nuances between a couple.

Mer om författaren

Mark Carew was born in Wales and grew up near Sudbury, Suffolk. He began working life as a scientist, receiving a PhD in cell physiology from Cambridge, and, until recently, was Associate Professor at Kingston University. Writing gradually took over during that time, with the publication of short stories, and the novels The Book of Alexander and Magnus. He now works as a freelance medical writer. He lives in Surrey with his wife and two children.

Recensioner i media

The Book of Alexander was an interesting novel, very much a thought experiment in fictional form. We’re always wondering about the detective as much as his quarry and this makes for a rather mysterious read, another very enjoyable debut from Salt.
