Before She Met Me
Before She Met Me | Julian Barnes
3 posts | 4 read | 4 to read
At the start of this fiendishly comic and suspenseful novel, a mild-mannered English academic chuckles as he watches his wife commit adultery. The action takes place before she met him. But lines between film and reality, past and present become terrifyingly blurred in this sad and funny tour de force from the author of Flaubert's Parrot. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Jedna od silnih lektira koje je trebalo da procitam u zimskom semestru. Bukvalno dan pred ispit sam pocela da je citam, krenula sam sa namjerom da samo predjem knjigu kako bih bila sposobna da odgovorim bar na jedno pitanje u vezi sa njom, a bila mi je i posljednja na spisku pa rekoh kad sam vec dotle "dogurala"... Elem, toliko mi se dopala da je nisam spustila dok nisam zavrsila. U dva ujutru. ?

Really, really great. I recommend it. ?

I almost forgot to count Before She Met Me for my reading challenges! Whoops. It was first published in 1982 and I got a $1 copy from the Housingworks bookshop that was printed in 1985! Definitely more than 10 years ago.

Flew back in last night (that's Toronto to NYC!) to have my work visa processed before I start my new job on Wednesday! Had a very easy time with US Immigration, thankfully. I feel very privileged as a Canadian to be able to get in so easily while so many others have been denied this weekend.😕

This book was not at all what I was expecting. It's a study on relationships and jealousy, really interesting, quite graphic at times. Like, but not love.
