Tell is a probing, exuberant and complex examination of the ways in which we make stories of our lives and of other people's. Structured as a series of interview transcripts with a woman who worked as a gardener for a wealthy businessman and art collector who has disappeared, and may or may not have committed suicide, it is a thrilling novel of strange, intoxicating immediacy, and the co-winner of the 2022 Novel Prize.

Reviews for Tell

' 'Buckley's fiction is subtle and fastidiously low-key ... every apparently loose thread, when tugged, reveals itself to be woven into the themes [and] gets better the more you allow it to settle in your mind.' - Michel Faber,Guardian ' - ' 'Few writers manage to conjure such raw unease as Jonathan Buckley ... completely compelling.' - Adrian Turpin,Financial Times ' - ' 'Exactly why Buckley is not already revered and renowned as a novelist in the great European tradition remains a mystery that will perhaps only be addressed at that final godly hour when all the overlooked authors working in odd and antique modes will receive their just rewards.' - Ian Sansom,Times Literary Supplement ' - ' 'Why isn't Jonathan Buckley better known? His novel of love, death and melancholy comedy,The Great Concert of the Night, is captivating.' - John Banville ' - '' - '' -
