| Description: | Select Guide Rating This is Jeffrey Archer at the top of his form, as he offers us unique fables of our time and civilization, each one shining a harsh yet hypnotic light on that fascinating, complex being called 'human'. <p>The fourteen short stories in <i>To Cut a Long Story Short </i>show Jeffrey Archer's great skills with a wide variety of character, of subject and of setting, but all with that trademark twist in the tale. <br><br>Every reader will have their own favourites: the choices run from love at first sight across the train tracks to the cleverest of confidence tricks, from the quirks of the legal profession – and those who are able to manipulate both sides of the Bar – to the creative financial talents of a member of Her Majesty's diplomatic service – but for a good cause. The last story, <i>The Grass is Always Greener</i>, is possibly the best piece Archer has written, and will haunt you for the rest of your life.</p> |
