Synopsis

In The Definite Object, a disillusioned American millionaire trades luxury for obscurity in London's East End, determined to find meaning beyond money. Immersed in the lives of working-class Londoners, he discovers both gritty realism and genuine kindness-especially from a spirited woman who challenges his worldview. A transatlantic tale of reinvention and romance, where truth and love must rise from behind false appearances.

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the writing of books, as all the world knows, two things are above all other things essential—the one is to know exactly when and where to leave off, and the other to be equally certain when and where to begin. Now this book, naturally enough, begins with Mr. Brimberly's whiskers; begins at that moment when he coughed and pulled down his waistcoat for the first time. And yet (since action is as necessary to the success of a book as to life itself) it should perhaps begin more properly at the psychological moment when Mr. Brimberly coughed and pulled down the garment aforesaid for the third time, since it is then that the real action of this story commences.
