Ce que les critiques en disent

"A master at work, a writer in absolute control of his material. . . . Sweet, sour, bitter, wistful, ruminative, comic, elegiac– The Lemon Table is . . . a joy to read." ( San Francisco Chronicle)
"Beautifully wrought elegies for lost youth, lost promises and lost loves [that] attest to Mr. Barnes's growing depth as a writer, his newly embraced ability to create stories that are as affecting as they are cunning, as emotionally resonant as they are prettily fashioned." ( New York Times)
"Filled with emotional resonance and hard-won wisdom, The Lemon Table is a virtuoso performance of remarkable clarity and insight." ( Los Angeles Times Book Review)

Timothy West and Prunella Scales narrations are superb. Reminded me of an excellent theatre production in the West End before COVID-19. as I listened to them on my iPhone. Julian Barnes’s talent as an author brings again wonderfully written glimpses into life in the later years as the body and or mind begin to give up.
