Caledonian Road by Andrew O'Hagan (Faber & Faber, 2024)
Fiction
Caledonian Road by Andrew O’Hagan (ISBN: 9780571381357, hardback). O’ Hagan’s previous book, Mayflies, was compelling, emotionally hard-hitting and powerful. From the early reviews, I’m expecting nothing less from this new story, which charts the rise and fall of Campbell Flynn: a privileged, possibly naïve, celebrity intellectual, who is exposed and unprotected when scandal hits and he falls very publicly from grace.
