Могут ли такие разные люди достичь счастья? И существует ли выход из конфликта, в котором, казалось бы, они безнадежно увязли?

Артур и Джордж родились в Англии в конце XIX века века, но пути их долгое время не пересекались.

Лауреат Букеровской премии Джулиан Барнс — один из самых ярких и оригинальных прозаиков современной Британии, автор таких международных бестселлеров, как "Одна история", "Шум времени", "Предчувствие конца", "Артур и Джордж", "История мира в 10½ главах", "Попугай Флобера" и многих других. Возможно, основной его талант — умение легко и естественно играть стилями и направлениями. Тонкая стилизация и едкая ирония, утонченный лиризм и доходящий чуть ли не до цинизма сарказм, агрессивная жесткость и веселое озорство — Барнсу подвластно все это и многое другое.
