Book excerpt: 'Cunningly clever, wry, dry, sharply pointed' EVENING STANDARD 'Alarming humour and a powerful talent' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'Bainbridge is brilliant at combining established fact and compelling fiction' DAILY MAIL 'People came in and out, chairs were moved, dishes gathered up on trays, but it was happening at a great distance; she concentrated entirely on his pink face crowned with foppish curls.' Genteel, passive Ann works for the BBC in London and is engaged to a successful academic, fulfilling her snobbish mother's ambitions - more or less - while the Swinging Sixties happen elsewhere, to other people. Then she meets William: snub-nosed and generous, cunning and protean. She is first seduced, then transfixed, as William's past, present and future swirl around her overwhelmingly and Ann is herself irrevocably and irreparably changed.
