About this Item
Now in protected wrapper, signed 'To Katia - whom I have just met. With very good wishes for Christmas and thereafter, A. L. Barker Dec 1992' to the fep. Doug, an ageing matinee film idol, lives in the South of France with his housekeeper, gardener and gooseboy. It is a life of contented isolation, until his agent calls from Hollywood, offering him a big film part. When his twin sister Dulcie calls upon her brother in the hillside retreat she finds him absent, and meets instead his enifmatic gooseboy, a young adolescent, dumb and nearly deaf, with an added deformity that fascinates her. And when her brother returns the gooseboy finds himself the object of still further pressures, with unnerving results. Seller Inventory # 002629
