Die einzige Geschichte

First love has lifelong consequences, but at the age of nineteen, Paul has no idea about that. At nineteen, he is proud that his love for the married Susan, who is almost thirty years older than him, defies societal conventions. He is absolutely certain that he has found the woman of his life in Susan; everything else is secondary. It is only as he grows older that Paul realizes the demands this love places on him are greater than he ever thought possible. "The Only Story" is a deeply moving novel about love. Following "The Noise of Time" and "The Sense of an Ending," bestselling author and Man Booker Prize winner Julian Barnes once again proves that he is a master at exploring the depths of human experience.
