John Banville - The Book of Evidence / literaire thriller.

Minerva1996 paperback 220 pp, normale lichte verkleuring boekblok, verder als nieuw. Engelstalig.

The darkly compelling confession of an improbable murderer, shortlisted for the 1989 Booker Prize.


Freddie Montgomery has committed two crimes. He stole a small Dutch master – an unattributed painting of a middle-aged woman – from a wealthy family friend. And he murdered a chambermaid who caught him in the act, bludgeoning her to death with a hammer.

An eccentric narcissist, he has little to say about the woman he killed. He travels through life without any apparent remorse. He killed her, he says, because he was physically capable of it. It made sense to him.

However, as he narrates his testimony, there is one thing he cannot understand. One thing he would desperately like to know. Why did he want to steal the painting?
