Description
Broadlake is a tragicomic exploration of family, friendship, love and loss, presented in an epic rhyming narrative that weaves together a unique literary detective story. A murder case serves as the catalyst for this strikingly original debut novel.
The deceased narrator has only one day left to uncover the origins of his downfall, but why is he in such a rush? As he navigates his past, he must consider whether his demise was caused by his childhood, career, friends or doomed relationships. Will he find the answer before it's too late?
Written over the course of two decades, Broadlake follows in the tradition of long poem connoisseurs such as Eliot, Frost, Ginsberg and Seth. Ed Bingham's work is a true labour of love that showcases his woozy lyrical style.
