Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative explores Jacob's journey from childhood in pre-war England through his college years at Cambridge and into adulthood, focusing on the women who shape his experiences. Key figures include the restrained Clara Durrant and the free-spirited art student Florinda, with whom he has a romantic entanglement. The story prominently features Jacob's life in London, culminating in his travels to Italy and Greece. Ultimately, the novel poignantly reflects on his death in the war, emphasizing the emptiness left behind rather than the act itself.
