"With a feeling of strange fascination he saw her turning over, lying on her belly, slowly drawing herself over the seaweed towards him, until the mermaid was clasping his feet with her hands, thrusting her head between his ankles, kissing one foot, then the other foot, and winding her arms round his knees and clasping him in stillness and in silence until with her warmth his being shed its phosphorescence of decay, and his blood was thrilling with her soft wet mouth; he must turn away, lie with his back to the moon, concealing his desire in shadow. O beautiful human life!" ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Pertenece a las seriesThe Flax of Dream (Book 3)
This is the third novel in Henry Williamson's Flax of Dream sequence. Willie Maddison has returned from the Great War and chooses to live a recluse-like existence in a remote Devon cottage; he cares for injured animals and writes. This abruptly changes when Evelyn Fairfax enters his life. Their affair should have been therapeutic, helping to anaesthetize the horrors of war, but complications develop when Willie follows Evelyn back to Folkestone where she has a husband, a young daughter, many besotted admires, and a bad reputation. The four novels comprising the Flax of Dream sequence are: The Beautiful Years, Dandelion Days, The Dream of Fair Women and The Pathway. It has been said, 'together they must be regarded as one of the major works in English fiction of the day . . . in every respect a wonderful achievement.' Faber Finds is proud to be reissuing them.
