‘An extraordinary piece of feminine characterisation.’
Sunday Times

From the Back Cover:

A beautiful woman in her early thirties, Mary Lavery, n�e Dunne lives in New York and is happily married to a much f�ted British playwright. But before this there have been other lives, two previous husbands, and a Catholic girlhood willed with suppressed passion. A brief encounter with an old friend brings back a sudden flood of memories from the past – memories which confuse and disturb ...

Female desire and sexuality, and the elusive nature of identity are brilliantly explored in this novel which glimmers with insight and truth.
