'Enthralling' - John Banville

'Effortlessly beautiful, funny, sexy and wise' - Julie Myerson, Books of the Year, Observer

All That Is explores a life unfolding in a world on the brink of change.

The life is that of Philip Bowman and we see his formative experiences as a young naval officer in battles off Okinawa, his post-war career as a book editor in New York, his trips to the great European cities - for publishing parties in London, romantic holidays in Paris.

But despite his success, what eludes him is love. His first marriage goes bad, another fails to happen, finally he meets a woman who enthrals him before setting him on a course he could never imagine for himself.

James Salter's dazzling, seductive and haunting novel offers a fiercely intimate account of the great shocks and grand pleasures of being alive.

'Full of verve and wisdom' - Julian Barnes
