David Nicholls: One day

Translation: Dominika Křesanová, Argo 2011

Supported by British Council

A comedically written story of a relationship that evolved from an evening’s accidental acquaintance into a faithful but also unfaithful friendship, and then into a deep love and short marriage. Under its comedic surface the novel captures not only changes in British customs and manners over the past twenty years, but also the deep antagonism between youthful intransigence and the compromises that we are willing to tolerate in the end.
