All the news reports about the Cannes Film Festival has reminded me of Irwin Shaw’s Evening in Byzantium, which I read years ago. When I finished it I thought it was one of the best books I had ever read (and I get through a lot of books). But I am not sure if I read it again now I would still enjoy it, my values have changed so much as I have got older.
Also, I remember I bought the book because of the blurb on the back (blurb would never influence me now - I rely on book reviews by critics I trust).
