The Irrationalist By Suzanne Buffam
"Suzanne Buffam’s The Irrationalist ta kes nothing for granted. Its rhythms manage to mimic the mind at work, the mind edgy and witty and sharp. The tones are brave and sweeping, ready to re-define the world, alert not only to history and the exigencies of the contemporary, but also to larger questions to do with philosophy, with time and space. "— Judges' Citation for the 2011 Griffin Prize Shortlist
