      The Ebony Tower is a series of novellas, rich in imagery, exploring the nature of art. In the title story, a journalist visiting a celebrated but reclusive painter is intrigued by the elderly artist's relationship with two beautiful young women.

      An extraordinary work of fiction, from one of the world''s most exceptional writers.

      A journalist visits an elderly painter and becomes intrigued by his young female companions. Four years'' worth of book research is set on fire in front of a writer. A successful MP disappears without a trace.

      Written with stylistic innovation, this sequence of novellas exploring the nature of art echoes the themes and preoccupations of Fowles'' earlier work and cements his position as a master storyteller.
