Autumn

Autumn by Ali Smith is a compelling work of psychological fiction that explores the intricate themes of love, time, art, and politics in contemporary Great Britain. This novel, a SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER and shortlisted for the BOOKER PRIZE 2017, is the first installment in Smith's acclaimed Seasonal quartet.

In Autumn, readers meet Daniel, a century-old man, and Elisabeth, a young woman born in 1984, whose perspectives on life and love intertwine amidst a backdrop of a nation in turmoil. As the United Kingdom grapples with a historic summer of division, the complexities of relationships are explored deeply. The narrative is described as 'undoubtedly Smith at her best. Puckish, yet elegant; angry, but comforting' by The Times.

This richly layered novel is perfect for readers who appreciate thought-provoking fiction and are interested in the psychological nuances of human connections. It also makes a thoughtful gift for literary enthusiasts.
