Among Others: Friendships and Encounters
Low stock: 1 left
'One of our best contemporary writers.' Sunday Telegraph
It's those around you who make you who you are.
Michael Frayn would like to say a brief word about a few of the people who have formed his
own particular world. Some were friends, some were not; some were more than friends.
Some have had a profound effect, some only a passing one. Some he now wonders if he ever
really knew. But each has had a formative effect on his own remarkable life.
Among Others is a patchwork memoir of a lifetime's encounters. Truthful and loving,
sometimes elegiac, sometimes comic, it is a celebration of the endlessly intriguing otherness
of others.
'The most philosophical comic writer - and the most comic philosophical writer - of our

These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
