Description

'Exquisitely written and structurally bold ... a deeply impressive novel' Eva Dolan, author of This Is How It Ends Selected for TLS Summer Books 2023 Arthur and Gwen married young. Twenty years on, Gwen's got it all: wealth, beauty, a famous husband who's the founder of Britain's most successful tech company, stables full of horses, millions of followers on Instagram, an unstable lover, a wayward son, a hoard of secrets, an aching heart, and a cyberstalking blackmailer who calls himself The Invisible Knight. As the Wiltshire town of Abury prepares to celebrate the fortieth birthday of its favourite son, Morgan, Gwen's former best friend, is on her way back to Abury after two decades away, keen to expose Abury's long buried secrets and hellbent on revenge. An inventive, magisterial reworking of Britain's greatest myth, Bliss & Blunder is a heartrending novel of power, friendship and betrayal.

Advance Praise

Bliss & Blunder, like the questing beast of legend, is many things at once; epic, sprawling yet intricate, it's a novel of action and intimacy, an astute critique of our technological era, a fitting homage to Arthurian myth, and a moving, highly original story in its own right. - Roisin Kiberd, author of The Disconnect

A thrilling romp through contemporary Britain with an eye on its ancient past. Victoria Gosling's Bliss & Blunder manages to be simultaneously pacy, rich and formally adventurous - Ben Fergusson, author of Tales from the Fatherland

The vivid sensuality of a summer's day and the brutal compulsiveness of a battle march... Playful, clever and romantic, like the best Arthurian myths, with something new and electrifying that is all Gosling's own. The women are wild, the tension is exhilarating, and the jokes are very, very funny. - Mikaella Clements and Onjuli Datta, authors of The View Was Exhausting
