'One of the last century's most original literary talents' DAILY TELEGRAPH

'Amazingly vivid' SATURDAY REVIEW

The tumult of living, the glory and the pain. The precious intimacy of little things. I wanted so much and so much.

Moments away from jumping into the swirling Thames, Dick is saved by a passing stranger with a grin, a quip and a cigarette. With his self-assurance and easy charm - and his honesty about having killed a man - Jake has a strange magnetism, and the two men plunge into an intense friendship.

Escaping the oppressive shadow of his poet father, Dick embarks on an adventure of self-discovery through Europe - until he washes up in bohemian Paris, where he resolves to pursue his artistic dreams. But as Jake always warned, no one can stay young forever . . .

Recenzii

She wrote exciting plots, she was highly skilled at arousing suspense, and she was, too, a writer of fearless originality
One of the last century's most original literary talents
No other popular writer has so triumphantly defied classification . . . She satisfied all the questionable criteria of popular fiction, and yet satisfied the exacting requirements of "real literature", something very few novelists ever do
Du Maurier's descriptions of riding in Norwegian mountains, of life before the mast and in foreign capitals ring as true as her transcription of a young man's thoughts and talk
Amazingly vivid

The tumult of living, the glory and the pain. The precious intimacy of little things. I wanted so much and so much.

Moments away from jumping into the swirling Thames, Dick is saved by a passing stranger with a grin, a quip and a cigarette. With his self-assurance and easy charm - and his honesty about having killed a man - Jake has a strange magnetism, and the two men plunge into a passionate friendship.

Escaping the oppressive shadow of his father, a famous poet, Dick joins Jake on a ship to Norway. As they adventure through Europe, Dick tries on new versions of himself - until he washes up in bohemian Paris, where he resolves to pursue his artistic dreams. But as Jake always warned, no one can stay young forever . . .
