Book 23 - Julian Barnes "Cross Channel"
Julian Barnes "Cross Channel" (Jonathan Cape)
This loosely linked collection of stories of British experiences of France spans a variety of settings, historical periods and social classes. Some stories appealed to me more than others, naturally, but I really loved how he ended the book.
Barnes always writes with clarity and humour and offers many insights. Very enjoyable.
