Bir Hışımla

Geoff Dyer is a talented young writer who is devoted to his profession. He decides to write a review on the great writer DH Lawrence, whom he admires. However, whenever he sits down at his desk, he cannot focus on his work. What distracts you is… almost anything!

Autobiographical novel, travel, literary review, confession, satire, memoir, narrative... Geoff Dyer, one of the masters of contemporary English literature, shuttles between certain genres of literature "in his own way" in his most popular book, A Feeling. Aside from handling DH Lawrence's life with a very different approach, it also makes him talk, so to speak, about heavy issues such as life, freedom, melancholy, responsibilities, writing, belonging or not belonging somewhere, and even "to be or not to be". …

"It tells the inner world of a DH Lawrence addict in an extremely entertaining and original way."
-Alain de Botton-

"Awesome... an extraordinary book about 'skating'. That aside, it explains Lawrence better than any other book I know."
-James Wood, Guardian-

"One of the books that gives literary criticism a bad name. Very funny."
-John Berger-

"The funniest book I've ever read."
-Steve Martin-

"Funny and self-defeatingly straightforward, with Nabokovian touches in his style."
-William Boyd-
