A Jealous Ghost - Hardcover
“For some reason, the very negative thoughts which she had during that interview with the rich-stockbroker woman in Kensington did not remain with her... She forgot that she despised the woman for not looking after her own children, and she forgot how much she envied and hated her for being rich enough to pay someone else to shovel her baby’s shit.”

Review:
“A hypnotic storyteller who leaves in his wake a trail of curiosity and unease.”
–Anita Brookner
“It’s the sort of novel that ought to be more common than it is. Full of old-fashioned, raucous pleasure: a real rattler of an entertainment.”
–Philip Hensher, Spectator
“A big, broad, sweeping book, as disturbing as it is funny.”
–Guardian
“He grapples with the concerns both of the heart and the intellect and it is grippingly readable.”
–Times Literary Supplement
From the Trade Paperback edition.
