Evening Standard
The Booker Prize-winning author of The Sense of an Ending takes us on a captivating journey through Belle Epoque Paris, weaving the life story of the pioneering surgeon Samuel Pozzi. In the summer of 1885, three Frenchmen arrived in London for a brief shopping expedition. Among them was a Prince, a Count, and a commoner who, four years prior, had been the subject of one of John Singer Sargent's most renowned portraits. The commoner was Samuel Pozzi, a society doctor, pioneer gynecologist, and free-thinker—a scientific mind with a famously intricate personal life. Pozzi's life unfolded against the backdrop of the Parisian Belle Epoque, a beautiful era characterized by glamour, pleasure, and a darker side that bore striking similarities to our own time. The era was marked by hysteria, narcissism, decadence, and violence, offering a poignant reflection of human nature.
