Advance praise for Noonday:"The ability to conjure a national crisis exploding into a series of personaldisasters, which so notably marked Barker’s previous trilogy, is on full display here."—Booklist"Noonday is the final volume in a trilogy that includes Life Class (2007) and Toby's Room (2012). You don't need to have read either of the earlier books to appreciate this one, which is a fine and satisfying novel in its own right."—Rebecca Adams, Financial Times"Noonday is nothing if not historical, bristling with period detail and gritty, well-researched atmosphere. Here, as you’d expect, Pat Barker excels."—Robert McCrum, The Guardian
(I have a bad memory, it will be like reading it for A real writer writing about real events, even if it is fiction. Nothing about this book feels false, unlike so many others. Waiting a year to read it again. (I have a bad memory, it will be like reading it for the first time with the same enjoyment!).

Pat Barker is most recently the author of the novels Toby's Room and Life Class, as well as the highly acclaimed Regeneration Trilogy: Regeneration; The Eye in the Door, winner of the Guardian Fiction Prize; and The Ghost Road, winner of the Booker Prize; as well as seven other novels.
Writing about the Second World War for the first time, Pat Barker brings the besieged and haunted city of London into electrifying life in her most powerful novel since the Regeneration trilogy.. Old loves and obsessions resurface until Elinor is brought face to face with an almost impossible choice. Completing the story of Elinor Brooke, Paul Tarrant and Kit Neville begun with Life Class and continued with Toby's Room, Noonday is both a stand-alone novel and the climax of a trilogy. As the bombing intensifies, the constant risk of death makes all three reach out for quick consolation. And into their midst comes the spirit medium Bertha Mason, grotesque and unforgettable, whose ability to make contact with the deceased finds vastly increased demands as death rains down from the skies. A new novel from the Booker Prize winning Pat Barker, author of the Regeneration Trilogy, that unforgettably portrays London during the Blitz (her first portrayal of World War II
