David Szalay Collection (All That Man Is & Flesh) 2 Books Set - Fiction - PB/HB Item Description Titles in this Set: 1. All That Man Is 2. Flesh (Hardback) Description: All That Man Is Nine men. Each of them at a different stage of life, each of them away from home, and each of them striving - in the suburbs of Prague, beside a Belgian motorway, in a cheap Cypriot hotel - to understand just what it means to be alive, here and now. Tracing an arc from the spring of youth to the winter of old age, All That Man Is brings these separate lives together to show us men as they are - ludicrous and inarticulate, shocking and despicable; vital, pitiable, hilarious, and full of heartfelt longing. And as the years chase them down, the stakes become bewilderingly high in this piercing portrayal of 21st-century manhood. Flesh (Hardback) A propulsive, hypnotic novel about a man who is unravelled by a series of events beyond his grasp. Fifteen-year-old István lives with his mother in a quiet apartment complex in Hungary. New to the town and shy, he is unfamiliar with the social rituals at school and soon becomes isolated, with his neighbour - a married woman close to his mother's age - as his only companion. These encounters shift into a clandestine relationship that István himself can barely understand, and his life soon spirals out of control. As the years pass, he is carried gradually upwards on the twenty-first century's tides of money and power, moving from the army to the company of London's super-rich, with his own competing impulses for love, intimacy, status and wealth winning him unimaginable riches, until they threaten to undo him completely. Spare and penetrating, Flesh is the finest novel yet by a master of realism, asking profound questions about what drives a life: what makes it worth living, and what breaks it. More Items!

Books were misdelivered by courier but seller refunded once contacted. As this was Xmas gift, I had to buy from Amazon only for these books to arrive a week later. Contacted seller about collecting them but they said not to snd donate to a friend/ community group, which we did. Great service only let down by Royal Mail.
1st time I have used this seller. I would definitely buy from them again. Order of 10 new books arrived in perfect condition. The post and packaging was excellent. Very happy with my order and who doesn't like the smell of a box of new books. Excellent price as well. Thank you Books2Door
Our Mindful book set arrived quick (before the due date). We had a tracking link which was helpful. Seller packaged the book set decently so it was protected and it arrived in great condition. Book set is more then value for money. I would recommend this seller.
