Secrecy—its possible convenience, its price, and even its civility—hovers throughout the novel. \u003ci\u003eA Heart So White\u003c\/i\u003e becomes a sort of anti-detective story of human nature. Intrigue; the sins of the father; the fraudulent and the genuine; marriage and strange repetitions of violence: Marías elegantly sends shafts of inquisitory light into shadows and onto the costs of ambivalence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/javier-marias-books\"\u003eJavier Marías\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780307950765\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £754.80","offer_id":47910006587569,"sku":"SB-030795076X-C3","price":754.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/030795076X.jpg?v=1789293464","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/a-heart-so-white-vintage-international","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
