Quatrième de couverture
'An investigation into the nature of shared human experience.it does what any good novel should - it unsettles, it moves, and it forces us to question who we are' Sunday Times
Terrified, a young prisoner in the Second World War closes his eyes and pictures himself going out to bat on a sunlit cricket ground in Hampshire.
Across the courtyard in a Victorian workhouse, a father too ashamed to acknowledge his son.
A skinny girl steps out of a Chevy with a guitar; her voice sends shivers through the skull.
From the pain and drama of these highly particular lives emerges a mysterious consolation: the chance to feel your heart beat in someone else's life.
'A tightly written, moving and exciting work of fiction' Telegraph
Sebastian Faulks is the author of nine novels, including the number one bestseller A Week in December, Human Traces, On Green Dolphin Street, Charlotte Gray and Birdsong.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. ** THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** 'A delight. A tightly written, moving and exciting' Daily Telegraph Terrified, a young prisoner in the Second World War closes his eyes and pictures himself going out to bat on a sunlit cricket ground in Hampshire.
