Inhaltsangabe

A spellbinding family saga spanning six decades of British history, shortlisted for the prestigious RSL Encore Award.

As the 1950s draw to a close and the Cold War escalates, the shape of Drummond Moore's life is changed beyond measure when he strikes up an unlikely friendship with James Carter, a rich and well-connected fellow national serviceman. Carter leads him to Doom Town – an army base that seeks to recreate the effects of a nuclear war – where he meets Gwen, a barmaid with whom he shares an instant connection.

Set against the backdrop of Britain from the post-war era to the present day, The Blind Light is a compelling story of love, family, and the far-reaching consequences of personal and political decisions. This extraordinary novel from Stuart Evers follows one family as they navigate the joys, sorrows, and complexities that echo across generations, capturing the essence of a nation in transition. Hailed as ‘powerful’ by the Guardian and ‘extraordinary’ by the Spectator, The Blind Light is a spellbinding work of literary fiction that will resonate long after the final page.
