Synopsis

Volume 1 of C.P. Snow's Strangers and Brothers includes the four novels: 1) Time of Hope (1914-1933); 2) George Passant (1925-1933); 3) The Conscience of the Rich (1927-1937); 4) The Light and the Dark (1935-1943). The story is told through the eyes of Lewis Eliot - gifted lawyer, academic and civil servant. Out of his public career, his private loves and friendships, the novels build up an intimate portrait of the man, and an unsurpassed record of English life from the First World War to the late sixties. This first volume with C. P. Snow's preface covers Lewis Eliot's childhood, his life at the Bar, his tempestuous marriage and his arrival at Cambridge
