Description
Charlie Grant watches as his father dies. Overwhelmed by this memory, he is left to confront his feelings towards his adulterous mother. This powerful novel explores themes of family, youth and society through the eyes of its intense young protagonist. William McIlvanney's writing is marked by a depth and nuance that draws parallels with the works of Hamlet and Camus. The result is a revelatory portrait of one man's struggle to come to terms with his past. A thought-provoking and deeply human novel, Remedy Is None offers a powerful exploration of the complexities of family life and the challenges of growing up.
