Disappointing after all the rave reviews
Only 2 out of 6 of my book club members could finish the book. I was one of them. There were some excellent passages here and there, but I had very limited interest in hearing about a married man with children who has no complaints about his wife, who embarks on a dalliance with a younger, adoring, beautiful woman while in Paris, no less. The book had a long foray into a flashback of a visit to a country during a civil war that was way too long and seemed irrelevant although it turned out to be the crux of the story.
