ANY HUMAN HEART - WILLIAM BOYD KARTONIERT (TB)

Any Human Heart is William's Boyd's classic  bestselling novel  now available as a Penguin
Essential for the first time. Every life is both ordinary and extraordinary  but Logan
Mountstuart's - lived from the beginning to the end of the twentieth century - contains more
than its fair share of both. As a writer who finds inspiration with Hemingway in Paris and
Virginia Woolf in London  as a spy recruited by Ian Fleming and betrayed in the war and as an
art-dealer in '60s New York  Logan mixes with the movers and shakers of his times. But as a son
friend  lover and husband  he makes the same mistakes we all do in our search for happiness.
Here  then  is the story of a life lived to the full - and a journey deep into a very human
heart. Any Human Heart will be enjoyed by readers of Sebastian Faulks  Nick Hornby and Hilary
Mantel  as well as lovers of the finest British and historical fiction around the world. It was
recently adapted for a major Channel 4 four-part drama series scripted by William Boyd and
starring Kim Cattrall  Gillian Anderson  Jim Broadbent and Tom Hollander. This edition features
beautiful cover artwork from the television series. 'Astonishing  touching  extremely funny. A
brilliant evocation of a past era and an immensely readable story' Sunday Telegraph 'Superb 
wonderful  enjoyable' Guardian 'A terrific journey through the twentieth century. Thoroughly
entertaining and enjoyable' Jeremy Paxman
