POETIC PROSE AND TWO TIMELINES
Ancient Life, the winner of the 2012 novel category of the Irish Book Awards, is the final book in Banville's Cleave Trilogy. The novel features a dual narrative, as Alexander Cleave recounts falling in love with a friend's mother as a teenager and grapples with the death of his daughter in the present. Banville's signature poetic prose forces readers to slow down and savor this added chapter of Cleave's story, published almost a decade after Shroud.
