Omschrijving

Perfect for fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz and 1917, The Photographer of the Lost is an epic novel of forbidden love, loss and the shattered hearts left behind in the wake of the First World War.

'[An] impressive debut . . . a touching novel of love and loss'

'There's only one word for this novel . . . and that's epic . . . A beautifully written must-read'

‘This excellent debut is a melancholic reminder of the rippling after-effects of war’

‘A poignant hymn to those who gave up their lives for their country and to those who were left behind’ 

‘The pain of not knowing where a son, brother or husband lies, and the guilt and psychological dissonance that torment survivors, are movingly conveyed in this terrific first novel’

'I was utterly captivated by this novel, which swept me away, broke my heart, then shone wonderful light through all the pieces'

‘Beautiful, unflinching, elegiac: The Photographer of the Lost is going to be on an awful lot of Best Books of the Year lists, mine included . . . it’s unforgettable’ 

‘A beautiful, tender novel which explores the aftermath of the Great War, and the shattered lives left behind. Written with gorgeous prose and a cast of memorable characters, this is a stunning debut which had me spellbound from the first page to the last’

‘What a stunningly beautiful book this is. Caroline Scott evokes the trenches of WWI and the heartache of the postwar period as vividly as if she had lived it herself . . . this is a powerful, redemptive novel, one that teaches us not only about history, but about our capacity for love. I could not put it down’ 

'A gripping, devastating novel about the lost and the ones they left behind' 

‘Scott has done an amazing job of drawing on real stories to craft a powerful novel’

'An amazing debut. It captivated me from start to finish and I can't recommend it highly enough'

‘A deeply poignant and immersive novel . . .  told in beautiful, elevated prose. I was completely caught up in these characters’ stories.’

What a wonderful debut novel. So accomplished. It grabs you from page one with such immediacy, such urgency. With a mystery at its heart and a moving, but page turning hook, I couldn’t stop reading.

'Momentous, revelatory and astonishing historical fiction!' 
 

'A profoundly moving story of love and loss. The Photographer of the Lost is a sublimely rendered portrait of the search for answers amidst the chaos and devastation left behind in the aftermath of World War 1' 

Caroline completed a PhD in History at the University of Durham. She has a particular interest in the experience of women during the First World War, in the challenges faced by the returning soldier. Caroline is originally from Lancashire, but now lives in south-west France.
