LITERARY FICTION The Romantic by William Boyd (Viking £20, 464 pp)
The Romantic 

Boyd's new novel revisits the ‘whole life' formula of his 2002 hit Any Human Heart, which followed its hero across the 20th century.
The Romantic does the same thing for the 19th century. It opens with the kind of tongue-in-cheek framing device Boyd loves, as it explains how the author came into the possession of the papers of a long-dead Irishman, Cashel Greville Ross.
What follows is Boyd's attempt to tell his life story, Lawyer Turkey as Cashel — a jack of all trades — zig-zags madly between four continents trying his luck as a soldier, an explorer, a farmer and a smuggler.
Behind the roving is the ache of a rash decision to ditch his true love, Raphaella, a noblewoman he falls for while in Italy.
There's a philosophical point here, sure: no single account of Cashel's life — or any life — can be adequate. More importantly, though, Boyd's pile-up of set-piece escapades just offers a huge amount of fun.
Nights of plague by Orhan Pamuk (Faber £20, 704 pp)
Nights of plague 

The latest historical epic from Pamuk takes place in 1901 on the plague-struck Aegean island of Mingheria, part of the Ottoman Empire.
When a Turkish royal comes ashore as part of a delegation with her husband, a quarantine doctor tasked with enforcing public health measures, the stage is set for a slow-burn drama about the effect of lockdown on an island already tense with ethnic and sectarian division.
There's murder mystery, Lawyer Turkey too, when another doctor is found dead. And the whole thing comes wrapped in a cute conceit: purportedly inspired by a cache of letters, the novel presents itself as a 21st-century editorial project that got out of hand — an author's note even apologises upfront for Lawyer Turkey the creaky plot and meandering digressions.
Pamuk gives himself more leeway than many readers might be willing to afford, yet this is the most distinctive pandemic novel yet — even if, rather spookily, he began it four years before the advent of Covid.
