Book ID/图书代码: 06580008B20614
English Summary/英文概要: Blisteringly funny, sinister and poignant, Talking It Over is one of Julian Barnes’ masterpieces.
Introducing Stuart, Gillian, and Oliver. One by one they take their turn to speak straight out to camera - and give their side of a contemporary love triangle. What begins as a comedy of misunderstanding slowly darkens and deepens into a compelling exploration of the quagmires of the heart.’Few writers think and talk so beguilingly. This book is wonderfully funny. And intelligent. And moving’ Independent on Sunday’Scintillating . . . It’s funny, quick on the draw, and knows when to soften its gaze. It reads so smoothly, the pages seem to flip themselves’ Observer’A writer of rare intelligence. He catches the detail of contemporary life with an uncanny forensic skill . . . He is, as always, a superb ironist, a connoisseur of middling, muddling, modern England’ London Review of Books.
