![]() ![]() ![]() Julian Barnes is back in April with Elizabeth Finch (Jonathan Cape), a singular tale about one man’s fascination with his enigmatic teacher - and Julian the Apostate. Look out, too, for Kamila Shamsie’s Best Of Friends (Bloomsbury, October), which follows a pair of friends from their schooldays in Karachi to stellar careers in London, where their lives are thrown into turmoil by not one, but two ghosts from the past. Written once again in ‘real time’, Companion Pieceby Ali Smith (Hamish Hamilton, April) is billed as a ‘coda’ to her much-lauded Seasonal Quartet. Set in 1960s London, Free Loveby Tessa Hadley (Cape, January) sees the new spirit of sexual freedom upturn the life of a married woman. A host of our most admired literary novelists return in 2022. ![]()
