About This Item
Doubleday, 2010. Hardcover. Fine. 1ST EDITION, 1ST PRINT, Book as new, unread, FINE/FINE condition. SIGNED BY AUTHOR TO TITLE PAGE. On its way to the Galapagos Islands, a light aircraft ditches into the sea. Zoologist Daniel Kennedy is confronted with a stark choice - should he save himself, or Nancy, the woman he loves? But how can one moment of betrayal ever be forgiven? And after he escapes the plane and swims for help, who is the elusive figure who guides him away from certain death? Back in London, Daniel thinks he finds the answer, and it is connected with what happened to his great-grandfather on the first horrific day of Passchendaele. But as the past collapses into the present, the fissures in his relationship with Nancy show through - until he is given a second chance to prove his courage and earn her forgiveness. "The Blasphemer" is a story about conditional love, cowardice, and the possibility of redemption - and what happens to a man of science when he is forced to question his certainties. It is a novel of rare depth and ambition that sweeps from the trenches of the First World War to the terrorist-besieged streets of London today: a novel that will speak to the head as well as the heart of any reader.
