In France in the early 1960s, "I" met Philip Dean, a wandering Yale University dropout, a "living idol" in Paris. "I" and Dean drove a Dracchi antique sports car for fun, until Dean met the French girl Anne-Marie, the object of a fiery and burning fantasy, and thus began a love story full of sensual charm. "I" follows Dean and Anne-Marie's romance between voyeuristic fragments and imagination, entering the dizzying depths of desire and emotion like the reader's accomplice. What is love beyond the short time and everything attached to it? Is it merely an artistic conception, an illusion described by others as impossible, created just to somehow understand the coming together and separation in life? A celebrated masterpiece by Paris Review Lifetime Achievement Award winner James Salt, "A Game and a Diversion sets a new standard for literature's primary tool: imagination. A tragic novel about a French love affair that is actually an ambitious and tortuous exploration of the nature and meaning of storytelling itself, and the underlying reasons why we need to create romance."
