Beschreibung

A respected literary biographer Mark is working on the life of Gilbert Strong - a writer about whom he thinks he knows everything. Happily married and apparently dedicated to a life of letters he nevertheless falls in love with Strong's granddaughter Carrie a vague and unsophisticated young woman more interested in bedding plants than books or passion. As Mark's obsessions develop over a hot complicated summer he begins to understand that nothing is ever what it seems; not Gilbert Strong and certainly not himself.

According to Mark is a witty and moving look at love literature and the dangers of middle-aged folly.
