Secondhand, Hardback. , . NB: This is a secondhand book in very good condition. See our FAQs for more information. Please note that the jacket image is indicative only.Author: Bernhard SchlinkFormat: HardbackNumber of Pages: 288Flights of Love consists of seven stories, all of them weaving around the idea of love - why people are drawn into it and why some run away. Schlink in turns shows us love as desire, love as confusion, love as a quick affair, love as a drastic life-changing rebellion, love as a force of habit, love as self-betrayal. The cumulative effect is a book which uses effortlessly beguiling language to examine the universal human desire to find a lasting loving relationship, however thwarted that desire ultimately is. Secondhand, Hardback.

Olsson (Book Design); Christopher Sergio (Jacket Design); Isolde Ohlbaum (Author Photo) (illustrator). 1st American Edition. 244 pp. Stated first American edition!

Synopsis: From the author of 'Lost' comes a funny acerbic novel - a love story of sorts- about a hopelessly romantic man with many private obsessions (mostly sexual) making his way in an absurd world. Albert is an ordinary young man, strangely ordinary. He goes to the pool and pokes a hole in his newspaper, so he can watch girls in their bathing suits. He sees female genitalia in great works of art, including crucifix. He obsesses about his mother. He finds himself in ridiculous situations involving men dressed like women. But at the heart of his tale of a man at loose ends is Elena, the beautician from Sardinia with whom he falls in love, at least until he gets to know her. For a while she has a Persian boyfriend who is married, which bothers Albert, but not enough to break things off. It is only when he moves with her back to Sardinia, where she fulfills her dream of having her own salon, that things fall apart and Albert, eyes perhaps more widely open at last, faces up to his future. In this stumbling, sympathetic hero, Hans-Ulrich Treichel has perfected the true postmodern hopeless romantic. The result is an original, deeply comic novel.
