About This Item

LONDON.FLAMINGO,1996.UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn.NFINE/VG.No owner inscrptn,and no price-clip to dw/dj.Pictorial decorated dw/dj with light shelf-wear and creasing to edges,but no nicks or tears.Top+fore- edges slightly aged but clean; contents bright,tight and clean.Black cloth boards with stamped gilt letters to spine/backstrip and plain grey endpapers.UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn,1-343pp. Lessing's first novel since 'The Fifth Child' in 1988.It is based around the discovery of the journals of Julie Vairon, an intelligent and lovely but wayward French girl from Martinique,brought to Provence at the end of the nineteenth century by one of her devoted lovers.Julie was a musician,a diarist,an artist,a 'free woman' ahead of her time.Nearly eighty years after her death in 1912,her music and her art illuminate the lives of the characters of 'Love, Again',when Sarah Durham,a theatrical producer,commissions a play based on her life.The play captivates all who come into contact with it,and dramatically changes the lives of everyone involved.For Sarah - an old woman - the change is profound; she falls in love with two younger men,one after the other,causing her to relive her own stages of growing up,from immature and infantile love (the beautiful and androgynous Bill) to the mature love,Henry.
