All That Is

di James Salter (Autore)

Pan Macmillan, 2025

‘Enthralling’ - John Banville, author of The Sea ‘Effortlessly beautiful, funny, sexy and wise’ - Julie Myerson, Books of the Year, Observer All That Is explores a life unfolding in a world on the brink of change. The life is that of Philip Bowman and we see his formative experiences as a young naval officer in battles off Okinawa, his career as a book editor in New York after the Second World War, his trips to the great European cities – for publishing parties in London, romantic holidays in Paris. But despite his success, what eludes him is love. His first marriage goes bad, another fails to happen, finally he meets a woman who enthralls him before setting him on a course he could never imagine for himself. James Salter’s dazzling, seductive and haunting novel offers a fiercely intimate account of the great shocks and grand pleasures of being alive. ‘Full of verve and wisdom’ - Julian Barnes, author of The Sense of Ending Part of the Picador Collection
