Zustand: Muy bueno. : Ambientada en Oxfordshire en 1899, Grace Inderwick crece en la periferia de una casa que alguna vez fue grandiosa, como una invitada no deseada en la casa de su tío. Tiene habilidades inusuales y predilecciones inusuales: por la pintura, aunque los rostros la eluden; por acechar en las sombras; por otras chicas. Luego llega una carta, con matasellos de Santa Helena. Después de años desaparecido en el mar, el primo de Grace, Charles, está listo para volver a casa. Cuando Charles regresa, irreconocible e inquietante, surge una brecha entre quienes afirman que es un impostor y la tía de Grace, quien insiste en que es su hijo. Y Grace, cuyo conocimiento íntimo de las falsificaciones es su propio secreto celosamente guardado, debe decidir en quién y en qué creer, y qué tipo de vida quiere vivir. Con una trama hábil y brillante con el ingenio, el estilo y el ingenio distintivos de Nell Stevens, THE ORIGINAL es una novela sobre el valor de la autenticidad en el arte y en el amor, y lo que significa ser un verdadero original.

Neuware - Shortlisted for the James Tait Black Prize 2026A Finalist in the Nota Bene Prize 2026'Casually magisterial' Guardian'Endlessly intriguing' Observer'A marvel of a novel' Ali Smith'Jane Eyre by way of Patricia Highsmith' BBC Radio 4'Puts Stevens in the class of Sarah Waters' Financial Times'There was a painting my family set on fire. It burned to ashes, and then it came back.'Oxfordshire, 1899. Grace Inderwick grows up on the peripheries of a once-great household, an unwanted guest in her uncle's home. She has unusual skills and unusual predilections: for painting, though faces elude her; for lurking in the shadows; for other girls. Then a letter arrives, postmarked Saint Helena. After years missing at sea, Grace's cousin Charles is ready to come home. When Charles returns, unrecognisable and uncanny, a rift emerges between those who claim he is an imposter and Grace's aunt, who insists he is her son. And Grace, whose intimate knowledge of forgeries is her own closely-guarded secret, must decide who and what to believe in, and what kind of life she wants to live. Deftly-plotted and shimmering with Nell Stevens's distinctive intelligence, style and wit, THE ORIGINAL is a novel about the value of authenticity in art and in love, and what it means to be a true original.'What a bewitching book this is. A sinuous, thrilling meditation on fakes and forgers, with echoes of Daphne du Maurier and Sarah Waters and an audacity that is totally original to Nell Stevens herself' Olivia Laing, author of THE GARDEN AGAINST TIME'Deliciously engaging and wildly intelligent. I adored this novel about art, authenticity and desire and am a devoted fan of Nell Stevens' Aysegül Savas, author of THE ANTHROPOLOGISTS'A delightful, playful puzzle of a novel, and a brilliant twist on the nineteenth century orphan-makes-good story. THE ORIGINAL asks whether, sometimes, faking it is the right thing to do' Claire Fuller, author of UNSETTLED GROUND'A wonderful novel about identity, creativity, money and belonging. It's so witty and propulsive you will forget how brilliantly constructed it is, this tale that brims with the beauty of art, of how to triumph in a difficult world. I absolutely loved it' Jessie Burton, author of THE MINIATURIST.
