The Book Against God: a Novel First edition
James Wood
Thomas Bunting while neglecting his philosophy Ph. D., still unfinished after seven years, is secretly writing what he hopes will be his masterwork--a vast atheistic project to be titled The Book Against God. In despair over his failed academic career and failing marriage, Bunting is also enraged to the point of near lunacy by his parents? religiousness. When his father, a beloved parish priest, suddenly falls ill, Bunting returns to the Northern village of his childhood. Bunting?s hopes that this visit might enable him to finally talk honestly with his parents and sort out his wayward life, are soon destroyed.
Comic, edgy, lyrical, and indignant Bunting gives the term unreliable narrator a new twist with his irrepressible incapacity to tell the truth.
