'Page-turning, cleverly constructed ... an entertaining book' GUARDIAN
'A satisfying, brave novel' OBSERVER
'An intriguing novel about history and truth ... The intelligence and inquiry of this book will surprise many' THE TIMES
'Wonderful ... brilliantly realised' INDEPENDENT
'It is a sombre, clever book, but, being Baddiel, is irradiated by flashes of dark humour' Sally Vickers, SPECTATOR
The new novel from David Baddiel, comedian, columnist and author of the critically-praised The Secret Purposes.
In New York's Mt. Sinai hospital, the world's greatest living writer, Eli Gold, is dying. Witnessing his death are his precocious 8-year-old daughter by his present (fifth) wife, his anxiety-ridden 44-year-old son from his third marriage, and his 89-year-old first wife, watching on TV from a care home in London. And also, secretly, his fourth wife's fundamentalist Mormon brother, who has never got over his sister's death in a suicide pact with Eli, a suicide pact that he, Eli, survived.
The Death of Eli Gold is a comedy, a thriller, and a meditation on love, death, aging, sex, fame, and the idea - the dying idea - of The Great Man.
