In these wide-ranging and provocative reflections, written with his customary subtlety and insight, Tim Parks tackles topics ranging from adultery and marriage to Italian soccer mania, from a bus trip in France to his own work as a renowned writer and translator. In each instance, Parks illuminates a particular aspect of human life. Intimate, compelling, unsparing yet compassionate, the thirteen diversions found here reflect the vagaries of the human heart and a brilliant writer's engagement with them.
