Faulks’s eighth novel appeared to announce a completely new departure in his work.
Narrated in the first person by the main character, Mike Engleby, it is modern, demotic and funny – albeit in a deep shade of black. It’s hard to think of a greater contrast between two successive novels of any major contemporary writer than between Human Traces and Engleby.
Whether Faulks has now finished with the 20th century, it’s too soon to say, but he did refer to Engleby in 2007 as ‘a portal into the present for me.’
