Novels

The Celibate

‘An exceptional book: at its core it combines the sexual with the spiritual.’
Sunday Times

Pagan and her Parents (Pagan’s Father in the US)

‘A moving novel about the survival of a modern family in the grip of death and the dead hand of convention.’
New Yorker

Easter

‘Arditti’s masterpiece and one of the first important English novels of the century.’
Literary Review

Unity

‘Strikingly original in form, its multiplicity of different voices rendered with a ventriloquist’s eerie skill, Unity is a remarkable, unsettling book.’
The Times

A Sea Change

‘Arditti succeeds in creating fiction that is morally serious, moving and intense.’
The Times Literary Supplement

The Enemy of the Good

‘Thank God (maybe literally) for writers like Michael Arditti, whose invigorating novels dare to shake us out of our complacency.’                                                    The Spectator
