The story goes that there’s an extra dinner guest at every meal. He’s invisible, but always there. He has a plate, glass, knife and fork. Every so often he appears, casts his shadow over the table, and erases one of those present. The Dinner Guest is a great novel, with the feel of documentary non-fiction.
