Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, Stonehenge and Hadrian's Wall, Harrods, Manchester United Football Club, the Tower of London, and even the Royal Family all within easy distance of the each other, accessible, and, best of all, each one living up to an idealized version of itself. This fantasy Britain is the very real (and some would say very cynical) vision of Sir Jack Pitman, a monumentally egomaniacal mogul with a more than passing resemblance to modern-day buccaneers ... |

Love, Etc»rank: 139734par: Julian Barnes
Chroniques et points de vue:From :0liver, Stuart, and Gillian have been friends and lovers. But it's been 10 years since this backbiting trio, which Julian Barnes first introduced in Talking lt 0ver, last met--and a lot has changed.

Under the guise of repairing old friendships--'all blood under the bridge'--this mild-mannered third wheel insinuates ... |
