Mind you, I don’t know why people get so fixated on happiness, which always eludes them, when there are so many other invigorating experiences available, like rage, jealousy, disgust, and so forth.
Some Hope
Patrick Melrose's third novel, freshly cleansed and tired of the world, is an unwelcome visitor at a glitzy party in the English countryside. In the midst of a swarm of flying social dragonflies, his quest for atonement and forgiveness is tested by his observations of the cruelties that surround him. Can Patrick, who has travelled to the farthest limits of experience and returned, find liberation from the savageries of his boyhood, armed with his piercing wit and a freshly fashioned openness?
