Inhaltsangabe

A small masterpiece of compression and containment, Peace Talks tells the story of one man&;s grief, the tribulations of the human heart, and our longing for peace.

Edvard Behrends is a highly regarded senior diplomat who has made his reputation as a mediator in international peace negotiations. In his latest post, he has been sent to a resort hotel in the Tyrol. High up on this mountain, the air is bright and clear. When he isn&;t working, Edvard reads, walks, listens to music. He confides in no one&;no one but his wife Anna. Anna, whom he loves with all his heart; Anna, always present and yet forever absent.

Reminiscent of Robert Seethaler&;s work in its formal elegance and emotional heft, of Rachel Cusk&;s novels in the precision and tenacity of its prose, and of David Szalay&;s writing in its abiding preoccupations, Finch&;s new novel is a work of great depth, honesty, wit, beauty, and enduring importance.
