Arthur & George
Author(s): Julian Barnes
From the Man Booker Prize-winning author Julian Barnes, comes an extraordinary true-life tale about a long-forgotten mystery ...now a major TV series starring Martin Clunes, Arsher Ali and Art Malik. Arthur and George grow up worlds apart in late nineteenth-century Britain: Arthur in shabby-genteel Edinburgh, George in the vicarage of a small Staffordshire village. Arthur is to become one of the most famous men of his age, while George remains in hard-working obscurity. But as the new century begins, they are brought together by a sequence of events that made sensational headlines at the time as The Great Wyrley Outrages. This is a novel about low crime and high spirituality, guilt and innocence, identity, nationality and race. Most of all it is a profound and moving meditation on the fateful differences between what we believe, what we know and what we can prove.
