"A striking first novel by a considerable verbal artist." - JM Coetzee (2003 Nobel Prize in Literature)
A professor contemplates the ruin of his life while delivering a passionate final lecture; a city girl suffers an unaccountably cruel twist of fate in a stranger's apartment; a rising executive flies blindly toward his past; and, darkly fleeting, a young boy haunts the lives of all who cross his path. In Ben Oswest's richly imaginative The New Suffolk Hymnbook, it is the district of Suffolk - its familiar rolling hills, its small-town characters and spaces - that binds them inexorably together.
The New Suffolk Hymnbook's digital edition features a striking new cover by acclaimed photographer Roger Ballen.
