But again as in so many of his novels the overt subject-matter, however vividly and convincingly conveyed, is only a grounding for profound explorations into human potential and morality. ***The theme of the novel, expressed in the title, is the opportunities we all have to recover from loss in our life, and the different forms that recovery can take. It is a fine, mature novel, written with considerable assurance yet confronting serious dilemmas without flinching. ***As Philip Howard writes, Stanley Middleton 'illuminates the important matters beneath the surface that ordinary people feel but rarely talk about.' (Quote from inside front dustwrapper blurb). ***First impression of the true first edition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Seller Inventory # 3479
