Julian Barnes!

Vinnare av Man Booker Price 2011!


En kort - bara 160 sidor - roman om en medelålders man som hinns upp av sitt förflutna.

Enligt Amazon spännande, intensiv, psykologiskt djup och starka känslor.

Har man börjat vill man inte sluta påstår de.

Vi får väl se, Det låter i alla fall lovande.


"This intense new novel follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he has never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance, one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. Tony Webster thought he’d left all this behind as he built a life for himself, and by now his marriage and family and career have fallen into an amicable divorce and retirement. But he is then presented with a mysterious legacy that obliges him to reconsider a variety of things he thought he’d understood all along, and to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single sitting, with stunning psychological and emotional depth and sophistication, The Sense of an Ending is a brilliant new chapter in Julian Barnes’s oeuvre."
