Summary
From Provence to New York to Gloucestershire, through the savageries of a childhood with a tyrannical father and an alcoholic mother, to a young adulthood fraught with drug addiction, we follow Patrick Melrose's search for redemption amidst a crowd of… glittering social dragonflies whose vapidity is the subject of his most stinging and memorable barbs. A story of abuse, addiction, and recovery; a depiction of a journey to and from the farthest limits of the human experience. Some descriptions of sex and violence, and some strong language. Contains the books “Never Mind”, “Bad News”, and “Some Hope”. c1992, 1994, 1998, 2003.
