Synopsis
Any Human Heart is an ambitious, all-encompassing novel. Through the intimate journals of Logan Mounstuart we travel from Uruguay to Oxford, on to Paris, the Bahamas, New York and West Africa, and meet his three wives, his family, his friends and colleagues, his rivals, enemies and lovers, including notables such as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Ernest Hemingway and Virginia Woolf.Reviews

‘Entertaining and enjoyable. A terrific sweep through the 20th century, seen through the eyes of Logan Mountstuart’

Daily Telegraph
‘Wise, profound and moving’
William Sutcliffe, Independent on Sunday
‘Astonishing, touching, extremely funny. A brilliant evocation of a past era and an immensely readable story. Made me laugh out loud again and again’
Sunday Telegraph
‘Astounding. One of Boyd’s greatest achievements. His storytelling purrs along like the engine of a luxury motor … the ride is a pleasure’
Mail on Sunday
‘Superb, wonderful, enjoyable’
Guardian
