The Gold Standard

I was trying to remember because I read read one and it's got this passage about him. He's kind of the gold standard, I think. What would you recommend somebody who hasn't read him start with? Well, that's it. That film, I showed it was good that my son is now 19. So well, not so much now because he's kind of an adult,. but that last four, five years of me kind of looking after him occasionally in Paris.
