Product Information
After journalist Caroline Marshall is killed by a drone strike in Pakistan, her devastated husband, Michael, leaves their cottage in Wales and moves to London to try to build a new life. There, living in a flat on the edge of picturesque Hampstead Heath, he develops a close friendship with the seemingly perfect family next door, Josh and Samantha Nelson and their two young daughters. The connection fosters the beginning of a healing process, which is disrupted when he receives a letter from the conscience-stricken pilot responsible for Caroline's death. Still reeling from this stirring of his grief, Michael makes a fatal error of judgment that brings a burden of guilt and a shattering secret into his life. As the tragic consequences of Michael's loss ripple outward, Owen Sheers's stunning novel propels us to a conclusion that is both profoundly unsettling and deeply moving.

Reviews
" The suspense is almost physically frustrating ... Mr. Sheers knows when to let the line out and when to reel it in ... an extended examination of grief, responsibility, guilt and redemption." -- The New York Times "[I]mmensely pleasurable ... From the start you feel Sheers knows exactly what he is doing ... This is an exemplary thriller, clever, classy, slick -- and always one step ahead of the reader ." -- The Sunday Times [UK] "[A] gripping and stylish thriller ... Moving smoothly back and forth in time, Sheers's narrative is one of finely tuned suspense that erupts into visceral drama . An award-winning poet, his honed prose is full of images of photographic sharpness that leap from the page. But this is also a novel driven by ideas, which, in keeping with its central theme, spins out across the world. As the connections between its characters become clear, and they struggle with the ripple effect of their tragic actions, so pressing questions about art and war, culpability and atonement are raised.The manner in which they're ultimately resolved is bold and satisfying ." -- Daily Mail [UK] "[D]eeply poignant ... A profound meditation on memory and mourning , Sheers's novel captures the 'unbearably fragile' nature of joy." -- Observer [UK] "[E]xtraordinarily tense and powerful, and beautifully written ." -- Mail on Sunday [UK] "Sheers' thriller is driven as much by subtle ideas as suspense ... [P]sychologically astute ... Sheers writes carefully about careless people and the results present the reader with a reflective window on to self-deception." -- Independent [UK] " A powerful moral thriller ... Sheers skilfully drip-feeds the reader his characters' secrets and lies, including a remarkable sequence leading up to the book's central, shocking moment of revelation. I Saw a Man 's ending is similarly bravura, elegantly throwing into new light much of what has gone before." -- Literary Review [UK] " The stately prose and cool omniscience in I Saw A Man provide the perfect cover for the roiling sea of emotions under its surface. One of the book's great strengths is how difficult it becomes to tell the good guys from the bad as the story progresses ... and the moral landscape grows ever murkier. Settled domesticity gives way to a quietly charged, Dostoyevskian psychic chaos whose outcomes are thrillingly uncertain ." --Matthew Thomas, New York Times bestselling author of We Are Not Ourselves, "An emotional suspense story. . . . Psychologically astute . . . lyrically beautiful. . . . Sheers is prodigiously talented." -- The New York Times "Immensely pleasurable. . . . This is an exemplary thriller [with] expertly detonated surprises. . . . A powerful, dark study of brutality, grief and guilt." -- Sunday Times (London) "Sheers' language is consistently rich and engaging, precisely calibrated. . . . The characters are complex and fully realized. . . . I Saw a Man treats guilt as a way of seeing, a lens that allows us to recognize otherwise lost bonds." -- Slate "Gripping and stylish. . . . Sheers's narrative is one of finely tuned suspense that erupts into visceral drama. . . . But this is also a novel driven by ideas. . . . Bold and satisfying." -- Daily Mail (UK) "Quite simply the most stylish thriller I've read: always intelligent, beautifully made." -Claire Lowdon, Times Literary Supplement, Books of the Year (UK) "Taut as a thriller, but resonant with motifs of intimacy and distance, guilt and redemption, and the nature of stories and storytelling. . . . It twists and turns and plays its cards close to its chest, showing its full hand only in the final pages, when we are forced to reassess everything that has gone before." -- The Guardian "Deeply poignant. . . . A profound meditation on memory and mourning, Sheers's novel captures the 'unbearably fragile' nature of joy." -- Observer (UK) "Sheers's thriller is driven as much by subtle ideas as suspense. . . . Psychologically astute." -- The Independent "A genuinely gripping piece of storytelling." -- Financial Times "Extraordinarily tense and powerful, and beautifully written." -- Mail on Sunday (UK) "A powerful moral thriller. . . . Sheers skillfully drip-feeds the reader his characters' secrets and lies, including a remarkable sequence leading up to the book's central, shocking moment of revelation. I Saw a Man 's ending is similarly bravura, elegantly throwing into new light much of what has gone before." -- Literary Review "Manages to capture the rhythms, and fragility, of love and family; Sheers is quietly moving on the timeless topic of grief. . . . Sheers really does pull off the oft-trumpeted blending of the personal and political." -- Independent on Sunday "Paul Auster meets Ian McEwan--a great success." -- NDR Kultur (Germany), "An emotional suspense story. . . . Psychologically astute . . . lyrically beautiful. . . . Sheers is prodigiously talented." -- The New York Times "Immensely pleasurable. . . .
