Tim Parks   ::   Loving Roger

 cover Buy this book from:Amazon UKAmazon US
Roger used to say that London was the only city in England. He said the throb of its life drew you towards it. Until you realized that you could never get inside that life you had imagined. It was a myth you had made. The city attracted you like light attracts a fly and then there you were with a million other flies buzzing blindly against a window that never opened. And the throb was only the buzzing of those blind frustrated flies.
