RaveThe San Francisco ChronicleWhat this book is about: the unreliability of the eyewitness account, the accumulation of evidence that over time forces Tony Webster to acknowledge the mistakes, the denials, the secrets of his own life and his responsibility for the lives of others. Everything he has believed about himself turns out to be irrelevant; everything he has forgotten is. How does one live with that? Uneasily, at best … The Sense of an Ending is a page-turner, and when you finish you will return immediately to the beginning. Like Tony Webster, we need to make sense of an ending and look ahead to our own.
