I would have liked to give this book a five star rating, but people are different - and although the description of death and grief is touching, I don't know if I can regognize it - thankfully.
The most interesting part: How Julian Barnes grapples with loss, and how he handles all those helpless souls trying to comfort, help, distance themselves or whatver they do to meet the author in his sorrow.

For photographers, the first part of the book is a must read, as it's all about Nadar, the great 19th century portrait and aerial photographer.
