THE OUTLINE TRILOGY: Rachel Cusk

OUTLINE, TRANSIT & KUDOS 

by Rachel Cusk

With the release of 'Kudos,' the third and final book in Rachel Cusk's Outline trilogy, it's safe to call this series a masterpiece! Following Faye, a well-travelled writer with two sons, as she teaches writing in Greece, navigates moving back to London after a divorce, and attends a European Literary Festival, these brilliant novels weave together a picture of the world via the conversations Faye has with the many people she encounters. Drawing heavily from her own life, Cusk has been compared to Knausgård (who may just turn up as a thinly veiled character in one of the novels). Personally, I think she's better!
