Winner of the 1996 Booker Prize, and now a major film starring Bob Hoskins, Ray Winstone, David Hemmings, Tom Courtenay, Helen Mirren and Michael Caine.
Story In Brief
Four Men - Ray, Vince, Victor & Lenny - once close to Jack Dodds, a London butcher, meet to carry out his peculiar last wish: to have his ashes scattered into the sea. For reasons best known to herself, Jack's widow, Amy, declines to join them. On the surface a tale of a simple if increasingly bizarre day's outing, Last Orders is Graham Swift's most poignant exploration of the complexity and courage of ordinary lives.
