Description

National Best-Seller  Winner of England’s Booker Prize and the literary sensation of the entire year, Ownership is definitely an exhilarating novel of wit and romance, at the same time an intellectual mystery and victorious love story. It's the story of a set of young scholars researching the lives of two Victorian poets. Because they uncover their letters, journals, and poems, and track their movements from London to Yorkshire—from spiritualist séances for the fairy-haunted far west of Brittany—what emerges is definitely an extraordinary counterpoint of interests and ideas. An exciting novel of wit and romance, an intelligent thriller, and a triumphant love story. This story of a set of young scholars researching the lives of two Victorian poets turned an enormous bookseller beloved, and then onto national bestellerdom.
