The Booker-shortlisted author of Umbrella writes his most American novel yet--a brilliant portrait of a 1950s housewife, based on the life of the author's mother, and an exploration of sexual freedom and sublimated desire, set between the dining halls of Cornell University and the raucous parties of midcentury New York CityWill Self is one of the most inimitable contemporary writers in the English language, dubbed "the most daring and delightful novelist of his generation" by The Guardian. In this brilliantly conceived new novel Self turns his forensic eye and technicolor imagination to the troubled life of his mother, Elaine. Standing by the mailbox outside 1100 Hemlock Street in Ithaca, New York, Elaine thinks of her husband and child inside her house and wonders: is this . . . it? As she begins to push back against the strictures of her life in 1950s America, she undertakes a disastrous affair that put her first marriage to an Ivy League academic and former Communist Party member in peril. Based on the intimate diaries Self's mother kept for over forty years, Elaine is a writer's attempt to reach the almost unimaginable realm: a parent's interior life prior to his own existence. Perhaps the first work of auto-oedipal fiction, Elaine shows Will Self working in an exciting new dimension, utilizing his stylistic talents to tremendous effect.

At 23 Elaine has achieved much more than a woman of her age in 1939 might have expected - or predicted. She is single minded, ambitious and highly intelligent and can handle the heavy responsibility that has fallen on her as war threatens. It seems that anything is possible. She is wooed by a neighbour, one of 'nature's gentleman', modest, unselfish, but limited. Frank desperately wants to marry her. Then she meets Robert Leonard, owner of the largest department store in Brighton, the most eligible man in the town and falls deeply in love with a man who seems to correspond to all her instincts and ambitions. The story takes Elaine and her family through the war and into the fifties and as she watches her bright daughter grow up she is determined that she shall not fall into the trap that ensnared Elaine. This is Part One of The Brighton Trilogy.
