Staying On is a novel by Paul Scott, which was published in 1977 and won the Booker Prize. The novel is notable for its clear prose and evenness of style, the perfect tone of its dialogue, and the sensitivity with which it elucidates the unspoken underside of a marital relationship which has withered on the vine.
