CHOSEN FOR THE DUCHESS OF CORNWALL'S READING ROOM BOOK CLUB
‘Eva Delectorskaya,' I said mystified. ‘ Who's that?'
‘Me,' she said. ‘I am Eva Delectorskaya.'
What happens to your life when everything you thought you knew about your mother turns out to be an elaborate lie? During the long, hot summer of 1976, Ruth Gilmartin discovers that her very English mother Sally is really Eva Delectorskaya, a Russian émigré and one-time spy.
In 1939 Eva is a beautiful twenty-eight year old living in Paris. As war breaks out, she is recruited for the British Secret Service by Lucas Romer, a mysterious, patrician Englishman. Under his tutelage she learns to become the perfect spy, to mask her emotions and trust no one. Even those she loves most.
Since then Eva has carefully rebuilt her life – but once a spy, always a spy. Ruth discovers her mother has one final assignment. This time, though, Eva can't do it alone: she needs Ruth's help.
Restless is a tour de force from William Boyd. Exploring the devastating consequences of duplicity and betrayal it is a gripping novel that captures the drama of the Second World War and a remarkable portrait of a female spy. Full of suspense, emotion and history, this is storytelling at its very finest.©2023 Alexandra Pringle (P)2006 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Kritikerstimmen
'The most accomplished storyteller of his generation'
'Boyd has an exceptional ability to tell a really compelling story, in dense imaginative detail, about characters with complex, and convincing, emotional lives'
‘Boyd has combined serious literary intent with an enviable talent for character, storytelling and humour'
big thanks to this book for reminding me why i generally avoid stories written by white european men who fall into the age range of being older than my dad but younger than my grandfathers.
boring, weirdly sexist, and exhaustingly cliché.
it’s not the worst book i have ever read, but i it’s so unbearably bland it sparks the petty 1-star-rating urge.
no <3
