The Infinities by John Banville

From John Banville, Booker Prize winning author of The Sea, comes The Infinities.  If this week's review in the Globe and Mail is any indication, this should be a great one! 

From the review: 

"Equally infinite, however, is the sensual and sensory beauty of the physical world, itself an animate force, almost a character, in any Banville novel. In The Infinities, the details are typically gorgeous: mist from a river advances up a hillside to press 'Its flanks shyly against the bottle-glass windows' of a pub, and spring winds that 'flow through the streets like weightless water.'"
