Glover's Mistake (Viking)
In this novel of love, manipulation and deception, Nick Laird attempts one of the trickiest strategies in the novelist's tool kit. He structures a book so that readers come to understand things the characters remain blind to. The result is that the vices that are consequences of immaturity, heartlessness or sophistication are painfully exposed.
