Description
Known as an exquisite prose stylist, John Banville writes psychological tales that explore the less pleasant sides of human nature. He plumbs the depths of his characters' psyches with a dark-adapted eye, and as a result his novels are haunting and disturbing. Due to his artistic background, his writing is very visual in nature, and frequently includes details about the world of art. The beauty of his language elevates commonplace events, and these are granted additional depth by reference to themes found in history and philosophy, or other works of literature.
