Description
Eminent British writer Sir Edward Strathairn returns to the Japanese resort hotel where he once spent a beautiful winter falling in love and writing his best-selling novel, which accused America of being in denial about the horrific consequences of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. As we learn more about Sir Edward's earlier life, however - his student days in Bloomsbury, his relationship with a famous American artist - we realise that he too is in denial, trying to escape the past events that are now rapidly catching up with him. An Exquisite Sense of What is Beautiful is a sweeping novel of East and West, love and war, truth and delusion. Featuring richly drawn characters and a narrative that perfectly builds the tension up to the explosive climax, this book has all the hallmarks of a modern classic.
