Synopsis
'What is written lives far longer than we do - or so we would
like to think.' From unfinished novel to unsent
letters, from prose to play, from Macclesfield to the
New Year's Honours List, Liar's Landscape is evidence
of the late great author's versatility, wit and passion for the written word.
When Sir Malcolm Bradbury died in 2000, he left behind a lifetime's work; some
of it published and some of it not; fiction and non-fiction; short stories and
novels; completed work, work in progress, work barely begun; plans, sketches,
notes, titles. Given shape and coherence by his son, Dominic, that work has now
become Liar's Landscape, a book about books, about writing and writers,
about being a writer and, of course, about being Malcolm Bradbury. Liar's Landscape is essential reading for
all admirers of Malcolm Bradbury and, for those who don't know his work, an
invaluable sampler of his worldly-wise humour and
satirical wit'

This final volume from the great novelist
and critic "is essential reading for all admirers of Malcolm Bradbury and,
for those who don't know his work, an invaluable sampler of his worldly-wise
humor and satirical wit." —Independent
When Sir Malcolm Bradbury died in 2000, he left behind a lifetime's work:
published and unpublished; fiction and nonfiction; short stories and novels;
completed work and work in progress. Given shape and coherence by his son,
Dominic, that work has now become Liar's Landscape—a book about books,
about writing and writers, and, of course, about being Malcolm Bradbury. Taking
the reader from unfinished novels to unsent letters,
and from prose to plays, it is eloquent evidence of Bradbury's versatility,
wit, and passion for the written word.
