About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Every life is both ordinary and extraordinary, and Logan Mountstuart's - stretching across the 20th century - is a rich tapestry of both. As a writer who finds inspiration with Hemingway in Paris and Virginia Woolf in London, as a spy recruited by Ian Fleming and betrayed in the war and as an art-dealer in '60s New York, Logan mixes with the men and women who shape his times. But as a son, friend, lover and husband, he makes the same mistakes we all do in our search for happiness. Here, then, is the story of a life lived to the full - and a journey deep into a very human heart.

A wonderful, beautifully written, well narrated novel - I immediately want to listen to it again from the beginning - just as soon as I stop crying.

I wish I had even 5% of the talent William Boyd has for storytelling. Brilliant writer!

Sublime biography of the life of Logan from a young boy right up to old age.
