All That Is explores a life unfolding in a world on the brink of change. Philip Bowman returns to America from the battlefields of Okinawa and finds success in the competetive world of publishing in postwar New York yet what he most desires, and what eludes him, is love.
Here is PEN/Faulkner winner James Salter's dazzling, sometimes devastating portrait of love and ambition, a fiercely intimate account of the great shocks and grand pleasures of being alive.
Written with Salter's signature economy of prose, All That Is fiercely, fluidly explores a life unfolding in a post-war America that is changing at breakneck speed. A dazzling, sometimes devastating labyrinth of love and ambition, of the small shocks and grand pleasures of being alive.
