Tomorrow

Tomorrow

by Graham Swift (Author)

Synopsis

Lying awake through the night, listening to the soft rain falling outside, Paula looks back. Distilling fifty years, and some of the most intimate issues of existence, into a single suspenseful night, it is a novel as vivid and resonant as it is moving and tender, and unquestionably one of Swift's finest to date. Graham Swift transforms ordinary lives through extraordinary story-telling.

Media Reviews
Praise for The Light of Day :
The story draws the reader on like the best whodunit-or, whydunnit. Yet it is also a profoundly artful, beautifully weighted, resonant and humane literary novel.
-- Telegraph (UK)
Leave it to one of the great modern storytellers to pen a mystery where the crime is the least important element . . . Swift fashions the detective archetype into a workshop for a discussion of human identity.
-- Winnipeg Free Press
[Swift] is a wonderfully original writer and his new work lives up to his reputation as one of England's finest living novelists . . . an intriguing, even mystifying story of the power of passion, murder and redemption.
-- Toronto Sun
Praise for Last Orders :
Graham Swift is a purely wonderful writer, and Last Orders, full of gravity and affection and stylistic brilliance, proves it precisely.
--Richard Ford
Book for book, Swift is surely one of England's finest living novelists.
-- New York Review of Books
