Gerald Seymour - A Deniable Death |
Friday, 30 December 2011 | |
The latest Gerry Seymour is perhaps his least accessible and most deep; very slow; very painful but still fascinating and brilliantly observed. Gerry researches like no other. The detail is phenomenal. Foxy and Badger stranded in an Iranian marsh - watching, listening, waiting. He really has become (well actually I think he's always been) a top level, first rank writer. Some of you may remember him as the ITN newsreader. I remember him as my Mum's gardener when he was a student (he came to her funeral). A great novelist. |
