Summary

Jamal is a successful psychoanalyst haunted by his first love and a brutal act of violence from which he can never escape. His coming of age in the 1970s forms a vivid backdrop to the drama that develops 30 years later, as he and his friends face an encroaching middle age with the traumas of their youth still unresolved.

Strange

Despite the depth of detail the characters don’t feel very believable and found the story leapt about in a childish way. The Analysis aspect kept me listening.

Love, London and Freud

I love every single line from Kureishi. This book in particular has better story compare with Intimacy and The Nothing , my personal opinion.
A type of book I would probably return to in future and read it again.
