About This Item

London, United Kingdom: Heinemann, 1986 [First published 1986]. This edition is now out of print. 218pp. Slight age and shelf wear. Original dustjacket not price clipped - jacket has slight browning around top edge. Jacket design: Claudia Zeff; illustration by Michael Munday. The top edge has some brown spotting. Clean text pages no internal markings. In this novel the sense of alienation and uncertainty which lies beneath and beyond politics and the struggle for power is compellingly evoked. By exploring the themes of love, loyalty and betrayal, and of tradition versus modernity, Christopher Hope creates a world where illusion and game-playing are not merely a refuge, but the means for self-preservation.
