This story of the frustrations and
inadequacies felt by a man on the dole will strike a response
in the hearts of those who have experienced the trauma of
being out of work. Unemployment brings disillusionment and
despair into the life of Terry Briggs. His status as a human
being is threatened purely because he is unable to find work.
A family move from industrial Lancashire to a Cornish holiday
resort brings changes of which Terry had never dreamed, altering
his way of life dramatically. The hero is human in every sense:
a man who makes mistakes then is riddled with guilt and remorse.
This novel covers a range of emotions from passionate love
to hate and despair. It features a love that is often earthy
and yet sometimes mystical. It is rooted in reality, yet entwined
with the magic and primeval atmosphere of West Cornwall.
Here is a novel of today: a book in which everyone will find
something with which to identify. Here too is an age-old story
– the love between a man and a woman.
