Description - Communion Town by Sam Thompson
The Man Booker longlisted novel is a meditation on how each of us conjures up our own city.
Every city is made of stories: stories that meet and diverge, stories of the commonplace and the strange, of love and crime, of ghosts and monsters.
Reminiscent of David Mitchell’s Ghostwritten and Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities, the Man Booker-longlisted Communion Town is the story of a place that never looks the same way twice: a place imagined anew by each citizen who walks through the changing streets among voices half-heard, signs half-glimpsed and desires half-acknowledged.
This is the story of a city.
