Description:
London: William Kimber, 1980. The stories are subtly linked by overlapping characters and by the atmosphere of Cornwall itself which pervades the plots, making a remarkable and compelling collection. Just to touch on some of the stories: 'Tomorrow's Moon' deals with the love of a middle-aged woman for a younger man; 'Red Letter Day' presents elderly people approaching Christmas, and in 'Come In Burglar' a school-girl faces a crisis in unexpected isolation. The influence of the supernatural, so strongly present in the Celtic dominated territory provides the bases for a number of the other stories. A fresh bright book (showing no ownership markings) in an illustrated price-intact dust jacket from a sketch by Feliks Topolski.. First British Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine.
