In 'The Newton Letter', John Banville introduces us to a historian who, in an attempt to finish a book about Newton, retreats to a quiet town in Ireland. There, he encounters a series of characters who lead him to evoke his childhood and imagine stories about his companions. This process prevents him from continuing with his work, leading him to a deeper understanding of both the English scientist and himself. A novel that explores introspection and human connection.
William John Banville is an Irish novelist, adapter of dramas, and screenwriter. A former member of Aosdána, he voluntarily relinquished the financial stipend in 2001 to another, more impoverished, writer.
