The French Lieutenant's Woman

John Fowles is one of the most outstanding and deservedly popular British writers of the 20th century, a contemporary classic of the highest caliber, the author of global bestsellers "The Collector" and "The Magus", "Daniel Martin" and "The Puppet". "The... French Lieutenant's Woman" is one of Fowles's main novels. Luring the reader with a spicy love plot, combining realistic tradition with elements of detective and mysticism, Fowles plays not with fictional characters, but with real readers. "The French Lieutenant's Woman" is a masterpiece that was brilliantly embodied in the film of the same name by Meryl Streep and Jeremy Irons. "There is nothing more interesting than the world of the psychology of human relationships and the inner world of the person himself. And Fowles is precisely one of those authors who can tell this very interestingly." — FANTLAB
