Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan recemended by you I think very clever and very sad . Reminded me of my own struggles 45 years ago with a long time wad girlfriend who was sexless and a bit of a twat if I'm honest . Anything else by him you would advise me to read ?All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy 10/10
I've been meaning to tackle McCarthy's Border Trilogy for ages. Just knocked off the first volume. What a great book. So many incredible sequences. The scene in which John Grady breaks a group of horses, and the aftermath, is just breathtaking: The wild and frantic band of mustangs that had circled the potrero that morning like marbles swirled in a jar could hardly be said to exist and the animals whinnied to one another in the dark and answered back as if some one among their number were missing, or some thing.
