It
is 1926, the year of the General Strike. Jim Latter, his wife Nina and
her former husband, Chester, are living in an uncomfortable ménage à
trois at Palm Cottage. Chester sees the chance of a political comeback
while Jim, head of the emergency police, feels he must make a stand.
Nina is caught up in the clash between the two men - a situation which
inevitably leads to disaster and tragedy.
Joyce
Cary was born as Arthur Joyce Lunel Cary in Londonderry, Northern
Ireland, in 1888. Cary studied art in Edinburgh and Paris and law at
Oxford, before fighting in West Africa in World War I. He took up
writing when injuries and bad health forced him into an early
retirement. Cary wrote several novels, among them Mister Johnson, using
his experiences in Africa as background. Cary has been acclaimed for his
skill in creating well-developed plots and credible characterizations
and for his unique sense of humor, and is best known for a trilogy that
includes the novels Herself Surprised, To Be a Pilgrim, and The Horse's
Mouth. Cary died in 1957.
