Graham Swift is a fabulous author who is the Booker prize
winner for his awesome three novels. All the three novels were interesting in
their own way. The novels which were the Bookers prize winner were Last orders,
the light of day and Waterland. Now Graham Smith is again on fire with his one
more intriguing creation Wish you were here. Wish you were here is all about
the love and affection among two brothers. One of them left for the War that
was taking place in Iraq against the terrorism.
The novel starts as the husband and a wife named Ellie and
Jack, who was a farmer but ending up in the owner of a caravan, lived on the
Isle of Wight. The Jack’s brother Tom had died in the war in Iraq. But it's
about the expedition Jack and Ellie started. Jack wanted to find out what
exactly happened to his brother in the War. It is a spellbinding story and a
journey which takes Jack to memories of his past. The events happening
throughout the story were explicitly heart threatening, heart racing, blood
sheds which leads to a very much interesting climax that grips an individual
attention.
