John Banville - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (948 words)
John Banville is an Irish novelist, born December 8, 1945 in Wexford.
Banville is known for his precise—some would say cold—prose style, Nabokovian in inventiveness, and for the dark humour of his generally arch narrators.
Banville is the youngest of three siblings; his older brother Vincent is also a novelist and has written under the name Vincent Lawrence as well as his own.
