““The book is a seductive mixture of diary, commonplace book, essay, travelogue, and memoir—arranged in loose paragraphs, in which Connolly gives us his views on women, religion, death, seduction, infatuation, and literature. The book was written in the wake of the collapse of Connolly’s marriage (his wife ran off with the publisher, George Weidenfeld) and it is the perfect read for anyone who has been left.” -AdB”↗
