A History of the World in 10 1/2 chapters
2 journalers for this copy...
A very clever book - I originally read this because my son studied it for his GCSE English exam.
A fictional history of the world in which stories echo each other as themes deepen and images recur. The author also wrote "Metroland" for which he won the 1981 Somerset Maughan Award and "Flaubert's Parrot" which won the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize and was short-listed for the Booker Prize.

I'm a huge fan of Julian Barnes so I grabbed this from the swap table at September's meetup. I'm really looking forward to reading this one, thanks for releasing it :)
