John Banville’s stunning powers of mimicry are brilliantly on display in this engrossing novel, the darkly compelling confession of an improbable murderer. Freddie Montgomery is a highly cultured man, a husband and father living the life of a dissolute exile on a Mediterranean island. When a debt comes due and his wife and child are held as collateral, he returns to Ireland to secure funds. That pursuit leads to murder. And here is his attempt to present evidence, not of his innocence, but of his life, of the events that lead to the murder he committed because he could. Like a hero out of Nabokov or Camus, Montgomery is a chillingly articulate, self-aware, and amoral being, whose humanity is painfully on display. A powerfully written, critically acclaimed novel that has been compared to Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, The Book of Evidence is a prize-winning story of a crime written in the form of a confession. In the course of returning to Ireland, a 38-year-old man commits a ghastly, seemingly motiveless murder. But how much of his confession is true, and how much the invention of a madman's imagination?
