All of his prior work, his metaphysical and philosophical enquiries, his investigations into the nature of narrative, have led to this masterful book.Part of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature.Read Percival''s Booker Prize-shortlisted novel James in paperback now.
