Letters from London

by Julian Barnes

  • CULTURAL PORTRAIT
  • 1995
  • PAPER
  • 320 PAGES

This sparkling collection of essays by the brilliant novelist Julian Barnes hones in on the social complexity and political reality of modern day England. Originally published in the "New Yorker," these always-on-target essays range from Thatcherite Britain to the foibles of the royals. A dedicated francophile, he also meditates at length on the historic cross-channel animosity.  (GBR14, $14.95)
