Description

A moving exploration of grief, ageing and love, After Darke is a witty reflection on the complexities of human relationships. Dr James Darke's return to society after serving time for his wife's assisted death sets him on a path of self-discovery.

As he navigates this new world, Darke's intense bookishness and misanthropic tendencies are juxtaposed with the needs of those around him, leading to a series of unexpected confrontations. With its exasperating yet loveable protagonist at its core, After Darke is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.

A nuanced and engaging novel that raises important questions about identity, morality and the complexities of human relationships, After Darke is a compelling read for fans of literary fiction.
