FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SNOW
'A marvellous and rewarding novelist . . . He is a magician, really.' THE SCOTSMAN
'Banville has a grim gift of seeing people's souls.' DON DeLILLO
'The most eminent innovator in Irish fiction of the last 50 years.' IRISH TIMES
'One of my favourite writers alive.' REBECCA F. KUANG
'Banville writes prose of such luscious elegance.' NEW YORK TIMES
Everything was a puzzle, everything a trap set to mystify and hinder me. . .
1899. As the new century approaches, English hack-writer Evelyn Dolman marries Laura Rensselaer, the daughter of a wealthy American plutocrat. But in the midst of a mysterious rift between Laura and her father, Evelyn's plans of a substantial inheritance are thrown into doubt.
As the unhappy newlyweds travel to Venice at Palazzo Dioscuri - the ancestral home of the charming but treacherous Count Barbarigo - a series of seemingly otherworldly occurrences exacerbate Evelyn's already frayed nerves: is it just the sea mist blanketing the floating city or is he losing his mind?
