Description: |
Banville's Booker Prize-winning novel, The Sea, has been turned into a film starring Natascha McElhone, Charlotte Rampling and Bonnie Wright. Introduced by the author, the screenplay reveals new sides to the work with extensive screen directions. This is a hand-made, slipcased hardback in an edition of 100 copies, signed by the author. |
Synopsis: |
'I cannot remember when the currents of The Sea first began to wash through my veins. It is the same with all my books - they seem not to have begun at any particular point but to have been always on the way, somehow, magically, and as if without my agency. I do recall walking my dog on the beach one day years ago and thinking that it was time for me to write something that would recapture the flavour of my childhood summers at the seaside. As to what that something would be, however, I was entirely vague. And then, before I knew it, I was Max Morden conjuring up the salt-washed world of Ballyless, the silly name I invented for the real Rosslare of my own boyhood. Fiction is as uncanny and unpredictable as the sea itself.'John Banville, taken from his introduction to the screenplay of The Sea |
