Written with a poet's precision, The Perfect Stranger is a funny, absorbing and brilliantly portrayed rite of passage. Driving the narrator is a desire to recount the effect of a singular young woman; the love of her and the loss of her.
This book recounts the comedy, passion and the abrupt tragedy P. J. Kavanagh's early years. From a Butlin holiday camp to Switzerland and a battlefield in Korea to Barcelona, Kavanagh's life made little sense to him until he met 'the perfect stranger.' This work is a tender, funny, and unsentimental record of the uniqueness of human love.
