An Instance of the Fingerpost (2000)

”When in a Search of any Nature the Understanding stands suspended, then Instances of the Fingerpost shew the true and inviolable Way in which the Question is to be decided.

Book

The Portrait (2006)

The Portrait is a great example of an extended first person soliloquy. Reading it is similar to reading the script for a one-man play. The painter-narrator, over the course of several evenings, rambles to his somewhat captive and uncharacteristically mute audience, a boorish critic, on a wide ran...

Not a usual reaction for connoisseurs. She herself was caught up in t...

The Dream of Scipio (2003)

El sueño de Escipión trata el clásico y apasionante tema del papel de la cultura en tiempos de guerra. A partir de tres personajes similares, hombres de letras representativos de su tiempo, el autor desarrolla otras tantas historias paralelas ambientadas en Provenza durante momentos históricos de...

Originally published on my blog here& in July 2000.The third of Pears' Jonathan Argyll novels is by far the most wide ranging in setting, much of the action (including the murder) taking place in Los Angeles rather than Italy, the country which basically contains the other stories. Jonathan trave...
