It starts very promising with the narrator seemingly drifting into homelessness and aimlessness being rescued by an aunt and sent to help out an eighty-something rebel and adventure woman friend at her smallholding. It stops there. The rest is predictable and nice. He finds his peace, love, girl, purpose and rediscovers his loss and memory and receives his meaning-in-life in a barroom fight...pretty. no reviews | add a review

Greg is thirty-three, without a job or a place to live. Hiding from painful memories, he only half-exists, his lethargy a protection against the world. Alice, his Leninist aunt, disturbed by his apathy, sends him to Dorset to help out a friend. Living in the countryside, working for the wildly eccentric, sports-car-owning Marjorie, he begins to face his past. As their friendship grows Greg is faced with an unexpected challenge that threatens to destroy his new-found happiness. No library descriptions found. |
