Summary

It was not love at first sight. It proved to be not much of a conversation. Nothing should have come of it.

A passionate but ultimately tragic love affair starts when two students - one French, one English - meet at university at the beginning of the sixties. From its tentative early stages, the relationship develops into a life-changing one, whose profound impact continues to reverberate forty years later.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘With a novel clearly autobiographical, the reader is constantly tempted into roman-a-clef speculation.

A literary feast. - Herald Sun

Bragg can write sublimely about the peaks, and for that matter gullies, of human emotion. - The Age

Beautifully told. - Daily Telegraph

Bragg’s new novel is a candid look - from the top - at life at the bottom. - DAPHNE GUINNESS, Sydney Morning Herald

A novel to be sipped like fine brandy. Remember Me… is cathartic and Bragg must write it out to its honest end. - Courier Mail

Remember Me is a romance with overtones of Who’s Afraid Of Virginia Woolf… almost everyone will identify with it. - Sydney Morning Herald

The prose is faultless. - MX Magazine

One can only applaud the seriousness, the humanity, the emotional honesty of the writing. Melvyn Bragg has added another forbidable chapter to one of the most distinguished literary series of recent times. - David Robinson, Sunday Telegraph
