What is Pulse about?
Review “Barnes’s erudition is in full display. . . . [He] combines mordant humour, perspicacity and invigoratingly crisp writing.” — The Independent “[A] perfectly weighted collection. . . . Affecting.” —The Observer “Julian Barnes is one of those confident literary decathletes, proficient at old-fashioned storytelling, dialogue-driven portraiture, postmodern collage, and political allegory and farce. He’s a true literary professional whose most compelling work showcases his musical prose, his ear for the chattering class’s chatter ( Talking It Over ), his ability to create narratives with both surface brio and finely calibrated philosophical subtexts ( Flaubert’s Parrot, The Porcupine ).” —Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times About the Author JULIAN BARNES is the author of ten novels, two books of stories, two collections of essays and a translation of Alphonse Daudet's In the Land of Pain . His most recent novel, Arthur & George , was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. His honors include the Somerset Maugham Award, the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize and the E. M. Forster Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 2004 he was named Commandeur de l'Ordre des Art
