Considered an 'audacious' second novel, GIOVANNI'S ROOM is set in the 1950s Paris of American expatriates, liaisons, and violence. This now-classic story of a fated love triangle explores, with uncompromising clarity, the conflicts between desire, conventional morality and sexual identity.

Excerpts

I stand at the window of this great house in the south of France as night falls, the night which is leading me to the most terrible morning of my life.
