Resumen del Editor

Now a major Sky TV series starring Benedict Cumberbatch.

Moving from Provence to New York to Gloucestershire, from the savageries of a childhood with a cruel father and an alcoholic mother to an adulthood fraught with addiction, Patrick Melrose is on a mission to escape himself.

But the drugs don’t make him forget his past, and the glittering parties offer him no redemption....

Searingly funny and deeply humane, Patrick Melrose: The Early Years contains the first three novels in the Patrick Melrose series, Never Mind, Bad News and Some Hope. Also available: Patrick Melrose The Later Years, containing the final two novels in the series, Mother’s Milk and At Last.

excellent narration, engaging story

one of the best narrators I've heard, with a story at all too late between melodramatic and drawn out through to gripping and deep. Initially feels almost like a soapy, then quickly takes a dive into broader social commentary and sharp observation of life. but gets bogged down around the third quarter, in tracking 1 persons struggle to progress. Overall a story told through vivid characters and engaging, interesting plot. The narrator is awesome which really helps

FIne prose; superb narration; story a bit tedious

St. Aubyn can certainly write, and he's able to capture experiences and moods very well. Alex Hemmings narrates brilliantly. But I found the characters and storyline rather tedious. All the characters are from the upper classes, and with one or two exceptions they're pretty insufferable. Many of them seem to be caricatures of snobby upper class English twits, money-obsessed, philistine or flaky Americans, oily Frenchmen, etc.. There is nothing to love in this world, much to despise, and here and there some people one might pity if they did anything other than wallow in their privilege.

unbearably self-indulgent characters

I could not finish. The repetitiveness of the awful behaviour and luxurious thoughts wore me down.
