Any Human Heart is William's Boyd's classic bestselling novel now available as a Penguin Essential for the first time. Every life is both ordinary and extraordinary but Logan Mountstuart's - lived from the beginning to the end of the twentieth century - contains more than its fair share of both. As a writer who finds inspiration with Hemingway in Paris and Virginia Woolf in London as a spy recruited by Ian Fleming and betrayed in the war and as an art-dealer in '60s New York Logan mixes with the movers and shakers of his times. But as a son friend lover and husband he makes the same mistakes we all do in our search for happiness. Here then is the story of a life lived to the full - and a journey deep into a very human heart. Any Human Heart will be enjoyed by readers of Sebastian Faulks Nick Hornby and Hilary Mantel as well as lovers of the finest British and historical fiction around the world. It was recently adapted for a major Channel 4 four-part drama series scripted by William Boyd and starring Kim Cattrall Gillian Anderson Jim Broadbent and Tom Hollander. This edition features beautiful cover artwork from the television series. 'Astonishing touching extremely funny. A brilliant evocation of a past era and an immensely readable story' Sunday Telegraph 'Superb wonderful enjoyable' Guardian 'A terrific journey through the twentieth century. Thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable' Jeremy Paxman
