Harris's Requiem Stanley Middleton

From Booker-Prize winning novelist Stanley Middleton.

Thomas Harris is on the cusp of success as a classical composer with a growing reputation.

When his father, a coal miner, dies Thomas decides to write a requiem for him which is also a thinly veiled attack on the powerful elite. In spite of opposition he finally succeeds in getting his work performed but how will the critics react?

Harris's Requiem Bewertungen

Middleton is a born writer; unpretentious, discerning, intelligent, and virtually incapable of writing a duff sentence. He is the Chekhov of suburbia; I recommend him. -- James Runcie * Daily Telegraph *
As ever with Middleton, the content is quiet and undramatic but the treatment makes it highly readable... there is never a dull moment. * Sunday Times *
Enlivening and heartening. * Times Literary Supplement *
A sharp and faithful picture of middle-class provincial life. * New Statesman *
