I’m not familiar with his writing but the cover illustration is of an eight man racing shell. If this is connected to sport and someone is interested I’ll be happy to try and get a copy
Thanks

Some Recollections of St. Ives by David Mamet Awarded a Booklist Review!

Hi Duncan,

David Mamet's new novel, Some Recollections of St. Ives, got a Booklist Review!

They said, "Mamet offers a refreshingly intimate, meditative, and elegiac novel."

Mamet's new novel is masterful novel masquerading as the memoir of Charles Hollis—a fictional man whose life spanned continents and conflicts, culminating in a decades-long tenure at one of America’s most storied institutions: The St. Ives School.

Some Recollections of St. Ives proves once again that Mamet is a master of language and character. Intimate yet expansive, this novel is an astute exploration of tradition and legacy—how we shape them and, in turn, how they shape us.

Please reach out if you're interested in a review copy or an interview with the author.

Best,

Rachel

“The finest American writer of his generation.” —Sunday Mail

“A pure writer, and the synthesis he appears to be making, with echoes from voices as diverse as Beckett, Pinter and Hemingway, is unique and exciting.” —Newsweek

“Mamet’s ear is uncanny. Nobody today has a more flawless gift for reproducing overheard colloquial speech.” —Robert Brustein

“Mamet deserves recognition for his careful, gorgeous, loving sense of language. He has the most acute ear for dialogue of any American writer since J. D. Salinger.” —The Village Voice

“Mamet is a true and exciting original . . . a blaze of talent.” —WCBS-TV

“Pinter. Albee. Miller. They’re all looking over Mamet’s shoulders.” —New York
