hortlisted for the Goldsmiths Prize 2014 The Absent Therapist is a book of soundings, a jostle of voices that variously argue, remember, explain, justify, speculate and meander …Sons and lovers, wanderers, wonderers, stayers, leavers, readers and believers: ‘The biggest surprise of all is frequently that things and people really are as they seem.’ ‘The whole book is like someone deeply charismatic and charming daring you not to find them insane. It’s wonderful.’ Nicholas Lezard, The Guardian ‘I was gripped and awed by Will Eaves’s The Absent Therapist, touching, addictive and unlike any other book.’ Thomas Ades, TLS ‘Books of the Year’ ‘The Absent Therapist is a miniature but infinite novel, and unlike anything I’ve read before. It’s just achingly good.’ Luke Kennard
