THE WHITE BOOK

WINNER OF THE 2024 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE SHORTLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE A brilliant psychogeography of grief, moving as it does between place, history and memory... The White Book is a mysterious text, perhaps in part a secular prayer book Deborah Levy, Guardian From the author of The Vegetarian and Human Acts comes a book like no other. The White Book is a meditation on colour, beginning with a list of white things. But it is also a book about mourning, and of rebirth and the tenacity of the human spirit. It is a stunning investigation of the fragility, beauty and strangeness of life from one of the great literary voices of our time. Wonderful. A quietly gripping contemplation on life, death and the existential impact of those who have gone before Eimear McBride The White Book is a profound and precious thing...
