'A dazzling, subtle, skilful knockout - I loved it' Charlotte
Mendelson 'One of our finest living authors ... propulsively
entertaining' New York Times 'Wonderfully strange and alive' Jon
McGregor A propulsive, seductive new novel about friendship,
exploitation and intimacy from the prize-winning author of Where
Reasons End Fabienne is dead. Her childhood best friend, Agnes,
receives the news in America, far from the French countryside where
the two girls were raised - the place that Fabienne helped Agnes
escape ten years ago. Now, Agnes is free to tell her story. As
children in a backwater town, they'd built a private world,
invisible to everyone but themselves - until Fabienne hatched the
plan that would change everything, launching Agnes on an epic
trajectory through fame, fortune, and terrible loss. A dark,
ravishing tale winding from the rural provinces to Paris, from an
English boarding school, to the quiet Pennsylvania home where Agnes
can live without her past. The Book of Goose is a story of intimacy
and obsession, friendship and rivalry perfect for fans of Elena
Ferrante, Ottessa Moshfegh and Kamila Shamsie. 'Beguiling ... A
shimmering, unsettling tale of exploitation and manipulation' Daily
Mail 'Brilliant ... A novel of deceptions and cruelty' Spectator
'For all its surface lushness, this is a novel of meticulous
philosophical inquiry...resonant with echoes of... My Brilliant
Friend, as well Elizabeth Strout... electrifying' Observer
