The Conversation by David Brooks (Hardcover, 2012)

About this product

Product Information

She came about five minutes later and sat at a table opposite him and closer to the wall, her back to the sea. Slim, not particularly tall, auburn hair, close-cropped, rather more studious than beautiful. Strong-featured. Or was it sharp-featured? A blend. In black jeans, a black jacket. Silver bracelet on a slender wrist. A young woman and an older man meet by accident - a gust of wind - at a restaurant in Trieste and find themselves dining together. They embark upon a conversation of the kind that can perhaps only happen between total strangers - risky, philosophical, full of the most intimate stories and confessions. She has questions. He finds, as the wine flows, delicious dishes come and go, and the velvet night deepens, that he doesn't have as many answers as he might have thought he had. Praise for David Brooks 'Idea and shadow, substance and illusion play subtle roles in this intriguing mixture of philosophical fable and adventure yarn.' Sydney Morning Herald on The Umbrella Club 'A gripping and satisfying mystery.' Canberra Times on The Umbrella Club 'A sense of deliberation and imaginative power imbues his work.' Age on The Fern Tattoo 'A book of extraordinary sensuousness and beauty.' Canberra Times on The Fern Tattoo
