‘He had already served three kings. He did not see why he should not be useful to a fourth.’
During the conquest of Northern England, the fairy host sweeps across the countryside. The city of Durham finds itself surrounded. But the encircling forces are not fairies, nor even other humans, but trees that trap the city within an eerie wood.
Ranulf, Bishop of Durham—a consummate politician—understands that the survival of the Northern English people depends on his finding a way to unite the two races, human and fairy. And he's not averse to improving his own position at the same time. With these aims in view, he sets off for the New Castle, in search of the new King—the leader of the fairy host, rumored to be a mysterious human boy, no more than fourteen years old, who speaks no word of any human language.
Set 700 years before the events of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, The Bishop of Durham Attempts to Surrender the City is a bewitching, must-have addition to any fantasy reader's shelf.©2025 Susanna Clarke (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

批評家のレビュー
This winding medieval fairy tale showcases the author’s trademark flare for the whimsical and uncanny . . . In lovely, lilting prose, Clarke renders a fascinating cast of humans and fairies alike. Sawdon’s striking illustrations add to the charm, evoking a medieval illuminated manuscript. The author’s fans will eat this up.
Clarke's imagination is prodigious, her pacing is masterly and she knows how to employ dry humor in the service of majesty.
[Piranesi] flooded me, as the tides flood the halls, with a scouring grief, leaving gleaming gifts in its wake . . . rich, wondrous, full of aching joy and sweet sorrow.
Piranesi astonished me. It is a miraculous and luminous feat of storytelling, at once a gripping mystery, an adventure through a brilliant new fantasy world, and a deep meditation on the human condition: feeling lost, and being found. I already want to be back in its haunting and beautiful halls!
A fiercely funny, beautiful writer, Clarke attacks her subject with the wit and craft of a Dickens or Austen, effortlessly mixing historical figures and events in with her magical ones. And that magic: nobody writes about magic the way Clarke does . . . She writes about magic as if she's actually worked it.
