Peacetime Book
Summer 1946: the English coast. Into a suspicious and isolated community comes James Mercer, employed in the demolition of gun platforms. A relationship grows between Mercer and the wife and daughter of Lynch, a soldier soon to be released from military jail. Mercer also befriends Mathias, a German prisoner with no desire to return home, and Jacob, a Jewish concentration camp survivor. Lynchâ??s return threatens violence; and in a place where nothing has changed for decades, where peacetime feels no different than wartime, Mercer finds himself powerless to prevent events quickening to their violent and unexpected conclusion. Longlisted for the Booker Prize, Peacetime is a novel of penetrating psychological insight and subtly observed relations.Read More
