‘Our purest living prose stylist’ – The Guardian
‘Tantalizing . . . A memorable tour de force’ – The New York Times Book Review
Some Hope is the third in Edward St Aubyn’s semi-autobiographical series, The Patrick Melrose novels.
Patrick Melrose, cleaned-up and world-weary, is a reluctant guest at a glittering party deep in the English countryside. Amid a crowd of flitting social dragonflies, he finds his search for redemption and capacity for forgiveness challenged by his observation of the cruelties around him. Armed with his biting wit and a newly fashioned openness, can Patrick, who has been to the furthest limits of experience and back again, find release from the savageries of his childhood?
This title was originally published, along with Never Mind and Bad News, as part of a three-book omnibus, also called Some Hope.
‘This is beautifully written novel . . . whose harrowing but fiercely funny portrait of addiction is the best I’ve ever read’ – Time Out
The Patrick Melrose books inspired a Sky Atlantic series starring Benedict Cumberbatch as the aristocratic addict.
Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
