Editorial Reviews:

Synopsis:

Combining the intellectual audacity of A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters with the francophilia of the acclaimed Flaubert's Parrot, Julian Barnes explores the English experience of France over the centuries with dazzling wit and sophistication. This is Barnes's first collection of stories.

Review:

"'Cross Channel', whether 'Post-Modernist' or not, strikes me as perhaps Barnes's most assured work so far."

P. N. Furbank, London Review of Books, 01/04/1995

Review:

"If you are not prepared to have your intelligence flattered or your ignorance highlighted by a few French literary allusions, you'd better give this one a miss....It is a rare thing to read a collection of short stories and, on reaching the end, be able to remember vividly each and every one."

Teresa Waugh, Literary Review, 01/1996
