Official synopsis Publisher
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 in Paris and London, as a spy 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.
