Description

THE FIRST THING YOU SEE ... isn't always what you get! The brilliant new novel from the author of THE LIST OF MY DESIRES, a Waterstones Book Club pick and international bestseller.
Arthur Dreyfuss is a young mechanic at a garage in the little community of Long, France. He has a small flat and leads a simple life. So, imagine his surprise when he opens his door one evening to find a distraught Hollywood starlet standing before him.

But although feigning an American accent, this woman is not all that she seems. For her name is actually Jeanine Foucamprez - and her story is very different from the glamorous life of a star. Arthur is not all he seems, either; a lover of poetry with a darker past than one might imagine, he has learnt to see beauty in the mundane.

A tender story about two fragile souls trying to love each other, THE FIRST THING YOU SEE will convince you that true beauty lies within.
THE FIRST THING YOU SEE ... isn't always what you get! The brilliant new novel from the author of THE LIST OF MY DESIRES, a Waterstones Book Club pick and international bestseller.
