Synopsis
From the Booker Prize-winning author of Possession comes an ingenious novel about love and literary sleuthing: a dazzling fiction woven out of one man's search for certainty. "Elegant ... witty ... intelligent." -- The Washington Post Here is the story of Phineas G. Nanson, a disenchanted graduate student who decides to escape the world of postmodern literary theory and immerse himself in the messiness of "real life" by writing a biography of a great biographer. In a series of adventures that are by turns intellectual and comic, scientific and sensual, Phineas tracks his subject to the deserts of Africa and the maelstrom of the Arctic. Along the way he comes to rely on two women, one of whom may be the guide he needs out of the dizzying labyrinth of his research and back into his own life. A tantalizing yarn of detection and desire, The Biographer's Tale is a provocative look at "truth" in biography and our perennial quest for certainty., From the award-winning author of Possession comes an ingenious novel about love and literary sleuthing: a dazzling fiction woven out of one man's search for fact.

    I ordered this item on Apr 7, 2025 and the ETA was 4/10-4/16/25. On 4/18 I contacted the seller through eBay and requested they cancel the order if it had not been shipped yet. I never heard back from this seller but the item did arrive on Apr 23. Also the item was listed as "Staff Hardback" but it is exactly like the same Bible I ordered for my grandchildren, and paid half as much. Book was in perfect condition, however.
