From the Heart

(2014)
A Story by

 
 
Welcome to a London on the cusp of the twenty-first century. And meet Anthony, Alison and Lucy. Anthony is the disillusioned junior partner of a City insolvency firm; Alison is his PR director wife; Lucy is the girl he has secretly been in love with for the past 17 years. This is the story of how Anthony and Lucy are brought together again, and the emotional consequences for the people involved. Set against the backdrop of a financial landscape where business is changing, dotcoms are booming and new technology is beginning to make its presence felt, D.J. Taylor’s novella is a dazzling exploration of the trouble we store up for ourselves when the choices we make come directly from the heart.

D.J. Taylor is the author of 11 novels, including Derby Day (2011), long-listed for the Man Booker Prize, and The Windsor Faction (2013). His non-fiction includes Orwell: The Life, which won the 2003 Whitbread Biography Prize, and Bright Young People: The Rise and Fall of a Generation 1918-1940 (2007).
