Book Synopsis Brief Lives by : Anita Brookner

Download or read book Brief Lives written by Anita Brookner and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this novel, Booker Prize-winning author Anita Brookner confirms her reputation as an unparalleled observer of social nuance and deeply felt longings. Brief Lives chronicles an unlikely friendship: that between the flamboyant, monstrously egocentric Julia and the modest, self-effacing Fay, who is at once fascinated and appalled by Julia's excesses. Thrust together by their husbands' business partnership -- and by a guilty secret -- Julia and Fay develop an intense bond that is nonetheless something less than intimacy, a relationship in which we see our own uneasy compromises, not only with other people, but with life itself.
