An NPR Best Book of the Year
In this elegant triptych of history, fiction, and memoir, Julian Barnes has written about ballooning and photography, love and grief; about putting two things, and two people, together, and tearing them apart; and enduring after the incomprehensible loss of a loved one. Powerfully rendered, exquisitely crafted in Barnes's erudite style, this searing work confirms the author as an unparalleled magus of the heart.

"Shattering. . . . Simultaneously wise, funny and devastating. . . . A fascinating discourse on love and sorrow." --The New York Times Book Review
"Elegant. . . . Deeply stirring. . . . Barnes's account of his grief [has] a fierce and fiery kind of momentum. Within a few pages it is aloft." --The Boston Globe "Levels of Life would seem to pull off the impossible: to recreate, on the page, what it is like to be alive in the world." --The Guardian (London) "Wonderful. . . . Not a grief memoir so much as a grief meditation. . . . Short, crisp, measured, and deeply felt." --The New York Review of BooksThis short, unconventional book is probably the most moving that Julian Barnes has ever written
