A new trade paperback edition of "a masterpiece of symbolically
charged realism....Fowles is the only writer in English who has the
power, range, knowledge, and wisdom of a Tolstoy or James" (John
Gardner, "Saturday Review").
The eponymous hero of John Fowles's largest and richest novel is an
English playwright turned Hollywood screenwriter who has begun to
question his own values. Summoned home to England to visit an
ailing friend, Daniel Martin finds himself back in the company of
people who once knew him well, forced to confront his buried past,
and propelled toward a journey of self-discovery through which he
ultimately creates for himself a more satisfying existence. A
brilliantly imagined novel infused with a profound understanding of
human nature, "Daniel Martin" is John Fowles at the height of his
literary powers.
