From the Booker Prize-winning and Women's Prize-shortlisted author
of The Silence of the Girls A powerfully thought-provoking portrait
of modern warfare from one of the modern masters of war fiction
'Barker is one of our most significant contemporary novelists'
Daily Telegraph 'The characters grab hold at the beginning and
never loosen their grip. Barker holds us by the sheer beauty of her
writing' Financial Times 'Barker has a quite extraordinary ability
to combine complexity and clarity and to make both seem parts of
the same whole' Sunday Times Returning to Afghanistan after his
photographer friend is killed by a sniper, war reporter Stephen
Sharkey seeks release from his nightmares in an England seemingly
at peace with itself. Questioning man's inhumanity to man both
abroad and at home, and whether love really can be the great
redeemer, Double Vision is a searing novel of conflict in modern
times.
