Dazzling. The novelistic equivalent of a Turner watercolor.' Washington PostPenelope Fitzgerald's Booker Prizewinning novel of loneliness and connecting is set among the houseboat community of the Thames. This edition includes a new introduction from Alan Hollinghurst.On the Battersea Reach, a mixed bag of the slightly disreputable, the temporarily lost, and the patently eccentric live on houseboats, rising and falling with the tides of the Thames.There is goodnatured Maurice, by occupation a male prostitute, by chance a receiver of stolen goods. And Richard, an exnavy man whose boat, much like its owner, dominates the Reach. Then there is Nenna, an abandoned wife and mother of two young girls running wild on the muddy foreshore, whose domestic predicament, as it deepens, will draw this disparate community together.A novel the Booker judges deemed 'flawless,' Offshore is one of Fitzgeralds greatest triumphs.
