'Accomplished, immersive and profoundly satisfying' Cathy Rentzenbrink<br/><br/>'Her finest, most beautiful novel to date' Neel Mukherjee<br/><br/>'Effortlessly resonant... breathes rich imaginative colour in her characters' Daily Telegraph<br/><br/>'Karen Joy Fowler's novels are wildly inventive and deservedly popular' Daily Mail<br/><br/>'In its stretch and imaginative depth, Booth has an utterly seductive authority'<br/>Guardian<br/><br/>'Captures with enthralling vividness a country caught in the grip of fanatical populism, ripped apart by irreconcilable political differences and boiling with fury and rage .... An unalloyed triumph' Literary Review<br/><br/>'Brilliantly recounts the story of the American theatrical dynasty that produced Lincoln's assassin' Sunday Times Book of the Month<br/><br/>From the Booker-shortlisted, million-copy bestselling author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves comes an epic novel about the infamous, ill-fated Booth family.<br/><br/>As heard on BBC Radio 4 Open Book<br/><br/>SIX BROTHERS AND SISTERS. ONE INJUSTICE THAT WILL SHATTER THEIR BOND FOREVER<br/><br/>Junius is the patriarch, a celebrated Shakespearean actor who fled bigamy charges in England, both a mesmerising talent and a man of terrifying instability. As his children grow up in a remote farmstead in 1830s rural Baltimore, the country draws ever closer to the boiling point of secession and civil war.<br/><br/>Of the six Booth siblings who survive to adulthood, each has their own dreams they must fight to realise - but it is Johnny who makes the terrible decision that will change the course of history - the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.<br/><br/>Booth is a riveting novel focused on the very things that bind, and break, a family. |
