description: Winner of Britain's prestigious Booker Prize, John Berger's "G." relates the story of a young man forging an energetic sexual career in Europe during the early years of this century. Berger sets his novel against the turbulent backdrop of Garibaldi and the failed revolution of Milanese workers in 1898, the Boer War, and the first flight across the Alps, making "G." a brilliant novel about the search for intimacy in history's private moments.
