I haven't re-read this in a while but I love it. ( ) Style prétentieux servant une histoire qui m'a semblé totalement dénuée d'intérêt. L'histoire est décousue à souhait pour apporter la preuve que l'écriture est innovante, je suppose. Etait-on si à court de bonnes publications en 1972 pour décerner le Booker Prize à ce navet ? Il est rare que j'abandonne un livre à presque la moitié mais il m'a paru soudain urgent de ne pas user une minute de plus de mon temps à une lecture aussi stérile. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

In this luminous novel -- winner of Britain's prestigious Booker Prize -- John Berger relates the story of "G.," a young man forging an energetic sexual career in Europe during the early years of this century. With profound compassion, Berger explores the hearts and minds of both men and women, and what happens during sex, to reveal the conditions of the Don Juan's success: his essential loneliness, the quiet cumulation in each of his sexual experiences of all of those that precede it, the tenderness that infuses even the briefest of his encounters, and the way women experience their own extraordinariness through their moments with him. All of this Berger sets against the turbulent backdrop of Garibaldi and the failed revolution of Milanese workers in 1898, the Boer War, and the first flight across the Alps, making G. a brilliant novel about the search for intimacy in history's private moments.
