Charles Palliser: Sufferance

SUFFERANCE: “In a country under occupation, a well-meaning family-man offers hospitality to a young girl of a different faith who is at school with his daughter. He has no idea of the consequences of that decision. As the political situation deteriorates it becomes clear that he has put himself and those he loves in grave danger.”

My first novel, THE QUINCUNX, has sold over a million copies internationally. I have published four novels since then. My new novel, SUFFERANCE, is published by Guernica Editions. My fiction has been translated into a dozen languages. THE QUINCUNX was awarded the Sue Kaufman Prize for First Fiction by the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters which is given for the best first novel published in North America.
