Description

Julian Barnes' new book is a complex and deeply personal work that defies easy categorisation. It's a family memoir, an exchange with his philosopher brother, a meditation on mortality and the fear of death, and a celebration of art.

Through this book, Barnes explores the nature of faith and the human experience, raising questions about the existence of God and our place in the world. He also pays tribute to the French writer Jules Renard, with whom he shares a philosophical bent.

The result is a thought-provoking exploration of one of our most brilliant writers' inner life, offering a unique glimpse into the mind of Julian Barnes.
