Description
Priestley's nostalgic novel set in the last years of the England that disappeared for ever in World War I. In 1913, young Richard Herncastle exchanges his office stool for a life of adventure, joining his uncle's illusionist act on the variety stage, and awakening to the worlds of love and sex.
