Publisher's Synopsis

John Banville's protagonists long for a sense of completion that neither their own psyches nor the world can satisfy. His novels, as works of art, enact a literary analogy of this tension by displaying elements of realism and postmodernism together. This work traces four main themes present in his novels.
