**THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER**

Would you rather love the more, and suffer the more; or love the less, and suffer the less? That is, I think, finally, the only real question.

First love has lifelong consequences, but Paul doesn’t know anything about that at nineteen. At nineteen, he’s proud of the fact his relationship flies in the face of social convention.

As he grows older, the demands placed on Paul by love become far greater than he could possibly have foreseen.

Tender and wise, The Only Story is a deeply moving novel by one of fiction’s greatest mappers of the human heart.

レビュー

A novelist at the height of his powers ... Quietly devastating. -- Robert Douglas-Fairhurst ― The Times

Exquisite. -- Kate Clanchy ― Guardian

Emotionally acute, profoundly beautiful, as droll as it is deep... this has to be one of the smartest novels that 2018 has to offer. -- Hephzibah Anderson ― Mail on Sunday

A gentle, bleak, and brilliant novel. -- Jon Day ― Financial Times

Immensely powerful. -- Alex Clark ― New Statesman

This intense, taut, sad and often beautiful tale may well be Barnes’ best novel for years. -- Lara Feigel ― Spectator

A tender and heartbreaking novel. -- Alex Preston ― Observer

As quiet and aching and intimate as a James Blake ballad. -- Rupert Goold

A sensitive look at what makes lovers tick. -- Robbie Millen ― The Times

A vivid dramatization of the narcissism of obsessive love. ― Economist

Cunningly crafted and sharply observed. -- Anthony Cummins ― Daily Mail

Barnes writes with shattering emotional acuity. The moments of pure devastation pile up, the story crushing with increasing weight as it unfurls. -- Lucy Scholes ― Independent

An utterly devastating masterpiece of a novel. -- Anne Cunningham ― Irish Independent

At once understated and dazzling. Which perhaps sums [Barnes] up, the dazzle lying not in the shimmer of individual sentences so much as in the curves and vaults of his structural decisions. -- Michael Gorra ― New York Review of Books

A quietly harrowing novel about the complexity of love and the slipperiness of memory. ― The Week

Distils some of the pandemonium, and intergenerational conflict, of our own uncertain time. -- Max Lin ― i

Barnes gives us a novel that asks the profoundest questions about memory, love and human existence. -- Lindsay MacPherson and Ben Felsenburg ― Harrods Magazine

What begins as a witty tale of rebellion against bourgeois norms becomes a moving meditation on love. Once again Barnes shows off his skill at getting to the heart of a human heart. -- Fanny Blake ― Woman & Home

Deeply affecting and profoundly philosophical, The Only Story is a novel by an author at the height of his technical powers. -- Charlotte Heathcote ― Sunday Express

Barnes' knowing combination of humour and seriousness makes [The Only Story] ... a persuasive universal romance. -- Lindsay Duguid ― Tablet

2019年8月23日に日本でレビュー済み

60年代のある夏、19歳の大学生の Paul は休暇でロンドン郊外の両親のもとに帰省し、母親からテニスクラブに参加するようにと勧められる。最初にパートナーを組むことになった Susan は48歳、彼女には夫 Gordon と、二人の娘がいるが、彼女とPaul は愛しあうようになる。
この物語は老いたPaul が、Most of us have only one story to tell.----- This is mine. と語り始めるのである。
29歳もの年齢の差がありながら、楽しく温かく始まった二人の暮らしが、その後どうなっていくのか、その厳しさや悲しさ、怒りの狭間になお混沌とする愛、ついには崩壊していくようすが、淡々と語られる。
ナレーションは、一人称の I で始まるが、やがてYou と変わり(自己を客観視しているのか)、最終章では He となる。
Paul の辿ってきた人生が 、友人たちなどとの関わりも交えて描かれ、根底にある愛情と義務感への考察には深いものがあるが、すべてが Paul 中心であるために、 アルコール依存症に陥ったSusan や 妻に去られたGordon の心情が十分に読みとれないことは否めない。

A capacidade de Julian Barnes em ir fundo nesse romance em que recria uma narrativa que envolve o leitor em uma história de um amor improvável em torno do qual disseca os dramas e frustrações de cada personagem é mais um ‘ must ‘ desse lúcido grande autor da literatura inglesa contemporânea .

Barnes is one of my favorite authors. I was overwhelmed by his writing style while read Sense of an Ending and I became fan instantly. This book follows an old guy ruminating his days of youth, his love for an older woman. I loved it from head to toe. Barnes would always strike your inner self with his slings of questions about love and life.

5つ星のうち5.0 Quintessential Julian Barnes - thoughtful, smart, sarcastic, warm, ironic.

Quintessential Julian Barnes – thoughtful, smart, sarcastic, warm, ironic. I’ve been puzzled, and slightly amused, by some readers’ claim that the story was ‘boring’. They probably never made it past part One, which – I admit – does not necessarily bode well, just another love story, in this case between a 19 year old student and a mature (being 48 – does that qualify as a mature age?) woman, and not a very original one for that. Ah, but then everything changes. Susan’s alcoholic disintegration of her relationship with her ‘Casey Paul’, despite his utmost resolve and attempts to save it (and her), is worthy of Malcolm’s Lowry’s "Under the Volcano". Ever thought of that one while reading part Two of "The Only Story"? And the fight, the terrible, and ultimately doomed, fight. Paraphrasing Barnes’: "love scribbled over a wild graffiti of booze". Yes – the last part, though the shortest of the three, can be momentarily overbearing. The vivisection of the failure and its consequences – but that’s precisely what I call ‘the quintessential Julian Barnes’. A powerful book – worthy of Booker, whichever list it makes.

5つ星のうち5.0 Alienation in the London suburbs
2018年4月28日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Generally, books that bounce between first and third person voices annoy me mildly—it seems pretentious, somehow. So one might think that "The Only Story" would annoy me more than mildly, since it starts off in the first person voice, switches to third person, then second person, then third again, and finally, in the last few pages, reverts to first. However, this book charmed me enough that it didn't seem to matter much (although I still find it a tad pretentious). At 273 pages, it's easily readable in five sessions or fewer.

Paul Roberts, the protagonist, is a classic example of the alienated young man, apparently devoid of any interest in most things that would have interested a typical undergraduate of Sussex University in 1963—ambition, career, money, parties both political and social. To his own surprise, he turns out to be interested in sex, particularly when, at a suburban tennis club, he is thrown together with Susan, a married woman 29 years older than him. "I found myself wondering whether the green buttons on her tennis dress would undo", he reflects. It turns out that all her buttons and bows undo, and thirty or so pages later she has left her family and moved in with Paul in London SE15 (that's Peckham, if you're interested, resolutely working class in those days but now somewhat gentrified and racially diverse).

Having got that slightly implausible narrative done, Barnes gets contemplative and third-persony. Paul starts writing sayings about love into a little black book. He develops a fascination for a character called Joan, Susan's former tennis partner and now a virtual derelict, her only love the gin bottle. You can feel Paul's bewilderment as the intensity of the love between him and Susan slips gradually away. Suddenly finding himself in need of a Life, Paul first becomes a solicitor, then invests in a West Country cheese company and discovers that he's quite content to run the cheese stall at a local farmer's market.

Perhaps this novel has something new to say about love and memory, perhaps not. The conclusion is that both are equally unreliable—not exactly an original thought. Didn't this very same author make the point in "The Sense of an Ending"? But, just like that earlier work, it's awfully well written and it kept me entertained throughout.
