‘With her familiar poise and eloquence Brookner presents the life and aspirations of one man who, as the 1960s become the 1970s and feminism and technology impinge on his refined existence, remains out of step with his times. Her sharp, funny observations of people and places draw the reader ineluctably in and make her one of the great writers of contemporary English fiction.’
