Synopsis
A path-breaking novel of art, womanhood and violence, from the author of the Outline trilogy. Midway through his life, an artist begins to paint upside down. In Paris, a woman is attacked by a stranger in the street. A mother dies. A man falls to his death. Couples seek escape in distant lands. The new novel from one of the most distinctive writers of the age, Parade sets loose a carousel of lives. It surges past the limits of identity, character, and plot, to tell a true story-about art, family, morality, gender, and how we compose ourselves. Praise for the Outline trilogy: 'A work of stunning beauty, deep insight and great originality.' Monica Ali 'A landmark in twenty-first-century English literature.' Observer 'A perfect synthesis of form and content.' Deborah Levy 'Page-turningly enthralling and charged with the power to move.' Tessa Hadley 'Reaches a kind of formal perfection . . . masterly.' Sally Rooney
