I recommend this for the dedicated Anglophile. Examines the lives and deaths of three Brits: Christopher Wood, an artist in the Paris of the 1920's; Richard Hillary, handsome and gallant RAF pilot during WWII; and Jeremy Wolfenden, journalist and spy in Cold War Moscow. All lived hard and died young. Their stories are used to depict the changes in English society from the Edwardian era through the swinging 60s.
