Description
“As nearly perfect as any American fiction I know,” is how Reynolds Price (The New York Times) described this classic that has been a favorite of readers, both here and in Europe, for almost forty years. Set in provincial France in the 1960s, James Salter’s A Sport and a Pastime is the intensely carnal story–part shocking reality, part feverish dream –of a love affair between a footloose Yale dropout and a young French girl. There is the seen and the unseen–and pages that burn with a rare intensity.
