Description

Virtue and Rosalind is a literary hall of mirrors, in which we view our narrator through the stories she chooses to tell, sweeping us up into a dizzying whirl. Central to her life are her relationships with other women, and their shared love of art. But, whether she is recalling a memory, attending a football match or reading fan mail, are the women who share her existence companions, projections, or merely refractions of a self perpetually in motion? International Booker shortlistee Anne Serre once again affirms herself a master of literary form and innovation. Lavish in scope, yet entirely unadorned and direct in style, Virtue and Rosalind leaves the reader with the sensation of having absorbed a whole library in one sitting - all in the company of a shrewd and hilarious friend, as we ourselves become a surface onto which she imprints her dazzling storytelling.
