A First UK edition in very good condition. Bumped at head and tail of book spine and some tanning to pages. The dust jacket is complete and still shows the price, with some slight signs of wear to the extremities and some foxing to the internal flaps.
SYNOPSIS: “Lawson is a cantankerous recluse. His world has narrowed down to his library and his continuous feud with his housekeeper. All he wants is to be left alone… but he has a visitor. A spoilt, inquisitive woman in late middle age. She brings laughter and music into the dusty rooms of his house and draws Lawson out, back into the world and into a perplexing and painful relationship that arouses the relentless jealousy of his housekeeper.
Lawson strives to find a path between the demands of both women and what begins in the autumn as a last flirtation with life, becomes by Christmas, a desperate struggle for survival.”
