Murmur is a novel inspired by the life of Alan Turing, reimagined through the fictional character Alec Pryor. Set during the period when Pryor undergoes state-enforced chemical castration for his homosexuality, the narrative delves into his introspections, dreams, and memories. Through Pryor’s experiences, the novel explores themes of consciousness, identity, and the human mind under duress.
The book is noted for its innovative structure and prose, blending first-person narration with epistolary elements. It has received critical acclaim, winning the Wellcome Book Prize and the Republic of Consciousness Prize, and was shortlisted for the Goldsmiths Prize.
