Tony Webster and his clique first met Adrian Finn at school. Sex-hungry and book-hungry, they would navigate the girl-less sixth form together, trading in affectations, in-jokes, rumour, and wit. Maybe Adrian was a little more serious than the others, certainly more intelligent, but they all swore to stay friends for life. Now Tony is retired. He’s had a career and a single marriage, a calm divorce. He’s certainly never tried to hurt anybody. Memory, though, is imperfect. It can always throw up surprises, as a lawyer’s letter is about to prove.

I’ve only recently discovered Barnes. I find the intellectual introspection both instructive and restorative regarding that drive to piece together an accurate account of ourselves, or extract a valuation of our lives via our impact on others while contending with the mire of our own subjectivity. So much focus is placed on the validation that others give to us, but this novel asks not, “do you see me?”, but rather focuses on “ do I/can I/ how do I see me?”. A life-long toil beautifully punctuated by Simon Vance’s narration.
