About this ebook

‘Stuart Nadler is a great writer’ – Time Out

'Perfectly crafted' – Financial Times


The Book of Life is comprised of seven stunning tales about all the big things: faith, love, family, temptation and redemption.

They show us at our most vulnerable and our most miraculous. They show moments of grief and betrayal as well as humour and happiness. They show us the best of people and the worst. They show us life.

Stuart Nadler, author of Rooms for Vanishing, is a writer in the great American tradition, but one who emerges from the shadows – of Updike, of Bellow, of Cheever – and stakes his own bold and exciting claim.

‘Impressive stories’ – Guardian
