Fiction

A new novel from the Booker Prize-shortlisted author of The Glass Room and The Girl Who Fell from the Sky.

Ancestry contains stories that are gripping and heart-breaking, from the squalor and vitality of Dickensian London to the excitement of seafaring in the last days of sail and the horror of the trenches of the Crimea.

"Simon Mawer is a truly great contemporary writer...his stories are richly rewarding." SIMON SCHAMA
