Acerca de este título

 Mike Engleby says things that others dare not even think. When the story opens in the 1970s, he is a university student, having survived a "traditional" school. A man devoid of scruple or self-pity, Engleby provides a disarmingly frank account of English education. Yet, beneath the disturbing surface of his observations lies an unfolding mystery of gripping power.

One of his contemporaries unaccountably disappears, and as we follow Engleby's career, which brings us up to the present day, the listener has to ask: is Engleby capable of telling the whole truth? Engleby can be seen as a lament for a generation and the country it failed. This is also a poignant account of the frailty of human consciousness.

Sebastian Faulks' newest audiobook is a bolt from the blue, unlike anything he has done before: contemporary, demotic, heart-wrenching, and funny in the deepest shade of black.

Reseñas de la crítica

"Brilliantly read by Michael Maloney, who makes Mike Engleby chippy, offhand, disconnected and seriously weird by turn. Over 30 odd years he tells us about his schooldays and university, about the girl he loved who disappeared one night and was never seen again, about the friendships he made and those he didn¿t. A compelling, disconcerting listen as you search for the truth only Engleby knows, seeing those he describes through his eyes, the fellow students and household names ¿ and always the mystery of what really happened at any time in Engleby¿s life." ( Daily Express)
