At Last is a miraculously wrought piece of art’ Suzi Feay, Financial Times

‘A terrifying, spectacularly entertaining saga’ James Lasdun, The Guardian

At Last is the fifth instalment in Edward St Aubyn’s semi-autobiographical series, The Patrick Melrose novels.

As friends, relatives and foes trickle in to pay their final respects to his mother Eleanor, Patrick Melrose finds himself questioning whether a life without parents will be the liberation he has so long imagined. Yet, as the memorial service ends and the family gathers one last time, amidst the social niceties and the social horrors, the calms and the rapids, Patrick begins to sense a new current: the chance of some form of safety – at last.

‘Remarkable. St Aubyn’s books are at once extremely dark and extremely funny’ Francine Prose, The New York Times

‘The pinnacle of a series that has plunged into darkness and risen towards light. At Last is both resounding end and hopeful beginning’ Philip Womack, The Telegraph
