Autumn. Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness. Two old friendsâ‚¬"Daniel, a centenarian, and Elisabeth, born in 1984â‚¬"look to both the future and the past as the United Kingdom stands divided by a historic, once-in-a-generation summer. Love is won, love is lost. Hope is hand-in-hand with hopelessness. The seasons roll round, as ever.
Â
A luminous meditation on the meaning of richness and harvest and worth, Autumn is the first installment of Ali Smithâ‚¬s Seasonal quartet, and it casts an eye over our own time: Who are we? What are we made of? Shakespearean jeu dâ‚¬esprit, Keatsian melancholy, the sheer bright energy of 1960s pop art. Wide-ranging in time-scale and light-footed through histories, Autumn is an unforgettable story about aging and time and loveâ‚¬"and stories themselves.
