On a cold day in February, two old friends meet on the outskirts of London at a crematorium to lay Molly Lane to rest. Both Clive and Vernon were once her lovers, and after the funeral they strike a deal that will have completely unforeseen consequences. Their friendship is severely tested, and each of them will have to make a fateful decision. This poignant and contemporary cautionary tale disguised as a tragicomedy won the 1998 Man Booker Prize.
