"Undeniably a major work of art...It remains from first to last an almost faultless display of craftsmanship and a wonderfully assured statement of ideas." - The New Yorker "Singularly moving and beautiful...the relationship of lover to husband with its crazy mutation of pity, hate, comradeship, jealousy, and contempt is superbly described...the heroine is consistently lovable." - Evelyn Waugh "An absorbing piece of work, passionately felt and strikingly written." - The Atlantic Monthly " Brighton Rock , The Heart of the Matter , and The End of the Affair ...all have claims to greatness; they are as intense and penetrating and disturbing as an inquisitor''s gaze." - John Updike "Graham Greene was in class by himself....

Synopsis
"A story has no beginning or end: arbitrarily one chooses a moment of experience from which to look ahead..." "This is a record of hate far more than of love," writes Maurice Bendrix in the opening passages of The End of the Affair , and it is a strange hate indeed that compels him to set down the retrospective account of his adulterous affair with Sarah Miles. Now, a year after Sarah's death, Bendrix seeks to exorcise the persistence of his passion by retracing its course from obsessive love to love-hate. At first, he believes he hates Sarah and her husband, Henry. Yet as he delves further into his emotional outlook, Bendrix's hatred shifts to the God he feels has broken his life, but whose existence at last comes to recognize. Originally published in 1951, The End of the Affair was acclaimed by William Faulkner as "for me one of the best, most true and moving novels of my time, in anybody's language." This Penguin Deluxe Edition features an introduction by Michael Gorra. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators., The classic tale of love, hate, and faith from one of the 20th century's greatest novelists "This is a record of hate far more than of love," writes Maurice Bendrix in the opening passages of The End of the Affair , and it is a strange hate indeed that compels him to set down the retrospective account of his adulterous affair with Sarah Miles.

- m***m (293)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufEverything about this transaction was perfect. I ordered the Heritage Press Call of the Wild. It was a great price, just as described, was packaged in plastic, which ended up being needed since it arrived on a rainy day. I also asked the seller to delay shipping since I was out of town. They kindly obliged my request. The book was inexpensive enough that factoring the shipping cost, was still a better value than other sellers providing free shipping. I will definitely buy from this seller again.
