An early classic from the Man Booker-prize winning author of <i>The Sea</i>.<p><i>I am therefore I think</i>. So starts John Banville’s 1973 novel <i>Birchwood</i>, a novel that centers around Gabriel Godkin and his return to his dilapidated family estate. After years away, Gabriel returns to a house filled with memories and despair. Delving deep into family secrets—a cold father, a tortured mother, an insane grandmother—Gabriel also recalls his first encounters with love and loss. At once a novel of a family, of isolation, and of a blighted Ireland, <i>Birchwood</i> is a remarkable and complex story about the end of innocence for one boy and his country, told in the brilliantly styled prose of one of our most essential writers.</p>
