Reviews
A great literary novel but also the most erotic book ever writtenJonathan Dee, Financial Times
A Sport and a Pastime . . . Slender, cynical and bruisingly sexy, the novel represents the first full flowering of [Salter’s] mature style; his exquisite sentences and extraordinary evocation of placeThe Daily Telegraph
Now deemed canonical . . . A Sport and a Pastime [is] still one of the most intensely honest books about sexual passionThe Sunday Times
A tour de force of erotic realism, a romantic cliffhangerThe New York Times
