Talking It Over

The bestselling, Booker Prize-winning author of The Sense of an Ending delivers "fiction at its best" (The New York Times Book Review) in an unforgettable novel about two best friends and the beautiful woman who comes between them.

First there's Stuart, stolid, conventional, but not quite so dull as he pretends to be. Then there is Oliver, his glamorous, epigrammatic best friend. And veering wildly between them is Gillian, the cryptic beauty who marries Stuart and then astonishes everyone by falling in love with Oliver. These three are at once the protagonists and the hilariously unreliable "eye-witnesses" of this funny, elegant, and affecting novel by bestselling author Julian Barnes, which reimagines the romantic triangle as a weapon whose edges cut like razor blades.
