Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo. William Morrow, New York, 1979. 173 pgs. First US Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. Previous owner's name p…resent to the FFEP. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Originally published in Great Britain in 1978, the novel describes Margaret Marsh's coming of age one summer between the world wars. Caught in the backwash of a fervently religious father, a mother bitterly nostalgic for what might have been, the tea and sympathy of some thoroughly secular neighbors and the bawdy jokes of her nanny Lydia, Margaret's world hurtles toward a shattering moment of truth. Drama, tragedy, and a touch of farce lend themselves to Gardam's typically eloquent prose. With subtlety and precision, God on the Rocks provides an intimate portrait of the tensions that divide men and women, present and past, and the love and sorrow that linger throughout. E-006; 9.1 X 6.6 X 1.1 inches; 173 pages.
