3.0 out of 5 stars Love's mysteries, that no one can explain, May 12, 2000
This review is from: The Perfect Stranger (Lives & Letters) (Paperback)
This slim volume recounts the author's young life, and his struggle to find the meaning of existence. When he met Sally, everything became suddenly clear. The author says this is not an autobiography, but the story of a rescue: he talks about himself only to explain what he was rescued from. He tries to express something which cannot be expressed directly, but only as if 'to be seen out of the corner of the eye'. So the reader may be disappointed that he says so little about his great love. The book ends abruptly with Sally's early and sudden death.

It is good to have evidence that perfect love and perfect happiness are possible on this earth, though given to very few.

You can read more about Sally in Rosamond Lehemann's 'The Swan in the Evening'.
