Description

All That Is explores a life unfolding in a world on the brink of change.
The life is that of Philip Bowman and we see his formative experiences as a
young naval officer in battles off Okinawa, his post-war career as a book
editor in New York, his trips to the great European cities - for publishing
parties in London, romantic holidays in Paris. But despite his success,
what eludes him is love. His first marriage goes bad, another fails to
happen, finally he meets a woman who enthrals him before setting him on a
course he could never image for himself. James Salter's dazzling, seductive
and haunting novel offers a fiercely intimate account of the great shocks
and grand pleasures of being alive.
