Book Synopsis
John Banvilleoffers a close analysis of most of Banville's major novels, his Quirke crime novels, and his dramatic adaptations of Heinrich von Kleist's plays. It asserts that Banville's fiction can be viewed both as an extended interrogation of the meaning and status of art, and that it is itself representative of the type of art admired in the pages of the novels.
