The Infinities

I have to agree that John Banville is an exceptional writer, with an envious vocabulary. Though highly imaginative in its plot, The Infinities is not the easiest read. I was glad, however, that I stayed with it to the end and was duly rewarded. I was intrigued that he used an omniscient narrator, one who sees all. It's not an easy choice for a writer, but one that Banville used with aplomb.
