A week in December


I'm reading the book "A week in December" by Sebastian Faulks. I've previously read and loved his "Human Traces" so when I saw his last book in the bookstore selves I had no second thought in buying it. Seven characters. All different. Their life unfolding in seven days in the wintery London a week before Christmas 2007.

I am reading from the book: "Whatever in their inner landscape had predisposed them both to dependency was now beside the point. To be that much in love was not good for you. It wasn't healthy. The likelihood of what doctors called a 'good outcome' was slight, and this much Gabriel recognised even at the time"...
