A unique memoir of a lifetime's
relationships - from one of Britain's most beloved literary companions.

It's the other people around you,
says Michael Frayn, who make you what you are. So he would like to say a brief
word, looking back on life from his ninetieth year, about a few of the people
who have formed his own particular world.

Some were friends; some not; some
more than friends. Some have had a profound effect; some only a passing one.
Some you may know yourself; some you certainly won't. Some he now wonders if he
ever really knew himself. The last of his subjects in this selection, and the
longest and closest acquaintance of all, is his own body, a companion on life's
road at least as idiosyncratic and puzzling as everyone and everything around
it.

Among Others is a patchwork memoir
of a lifetime's encounters. Truthful and loving, sometimes elegiac, sometimes
comic, it is a celebration of the endlessly intriguing otherness of others.
