  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Julian Barnes is brilliant. This is so funny and the voices of each of the characters is so distinct. I noted down many new (to me) vocab words - he’s so clever, there’s French and German and smatterings of other languages, too and I appreciated his musings on life, love, and relationships.
