The Book of Evidence by John Banville.

Autor: Brown, James S.
Zdroj: Salem Press Encyclopedia of Literature, 2022. 3p.
Abstrakt: Freddie Montgomery, a former university lecturer in statistics, is in prison for murder, and he is ready to tell his story. He begins by describing the conditions of the prison he calls home, displaying in his tone a bravado that embraces his experience as a captured animal, a monster. He describes the noises and smells of prison but refuses to speak of the various kinds of darkness he and other prisoners face. This explicit refusal reveals the fear and uncertainty just beneath the controlled, analytical exterior Freddie generally presents.
