About this listen

'Would you rather love the more, and suffer the more; or love the less, and suffer the less? That is, I think, finally, the only real question.'

First love has lifelong consequences, but Paul doesn't know anything about that at 19. At 19, he's proud of the fact his relationship flies in the face of social convention. As he grows older, the demands placed on Paul by love become far greater than he could possibly have foreseen.

Barnes is superb as alway.

If you enjoy Julian Barnes’ writing as I do, you’ll enjoy this book. If your new to Barnes then I suggest you start with Sense of an Ending and then return to this.
