Part-British romantic comedy, part-Russian social realism, with Gerhardie's trademark large cast of wonderfully realised and highly memorable characters, this funny and poignant novel is the tale of persistance in love and hope in the face of what should be insurmountably difficult circumstances.
Reviews / Votes
To my generation Gerhardie was the most important new novelist to appear in our young life True, devastating. A wonderful book Futility is a living book - it is warm. One can put it down and it keeps on breathing Dazzling and funny... Everyone should read one Gerhardie novel, at least, and Futility is probably as good as any' * Sunday Times *More details
