Re: Bookworms:What are the best first lines you've read?

"They were young, educated, and both virgins on this, their wedding night, and they lived in a time when a conversation about sexual difficulties was plainly impossible. But it is never easy."

Ian Mc Ewan: On Chesil Beach

Brilliant, touching and sad. Pocket sized book, great read.
