Penguin Random House India presents a classic story of murder and deceit, told by a narrator with a perspective and voice unlike any in recent literature. This is a bravura performance…a fine work from a true master.
About the book:
Trudy has betrayed her husband, John. She’s still in the marital home – a dilapidated, priceless London townhouse – but now with John. Instead, she’s with his brother, the profoundly banal Claude, and the two of them have a plan. But there is a witness to their plot: the inquisitive, nine-month-old resident of Trudy’s womb.
Told from a perspective unlike any other, Nutshell is a classic tale of murder and deceit from one of the world’s master storytellers.
