Description

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'Compelling and stunningly written' THE TIMES
'Wildly exciting . . . a classic' SPECTATOR
'Flawless . . . poetic . . . superbly portrayed' DAILY TELEGRAPH

Three men. Three short, glittering lives.

Young English painter Christopher Wood arrives in Paris in 1921 set on becoming the next great master. By day he studies; by night he attends parties with Picasso and Cocteau before paying too high a price for success. Richard Hilary, a confident if unprincipled Spitfire pilot, is suffering from terrible burns after being shot down. But the operations to restore him haven't deterred him from returning to action. And Jeremy Wolfenden, the cleverest of his set at All Souls College, leaves it all behind to report on the Cold War. But his louche private life makes him a plaything for the intelligent services, taking him on a fateful journey between East and West.

The Fatal Englishman is a stunning tale of three short lives that burned brightly from a master storyteller.
