Seller's Description:
Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -Frank Attercliffe at forty-seven is growing old: `so old he could scarcely remember the vicissitudes of his youth-the austerity the circumspection the detrivation the challenge-even the fervour linked to enterprise initiative and aspiration. ` Nevertheless confronted by a wife who insists on returning home after leaving him for a richer man by his five children and their multifarious demands he struggled to re-animate the virtues of his past: a sportswriter and formerly a professional footballer he faces the additional tribulation of losing his job a fate finally overshadowed by the death of his own friend. Amidst a world of racialist agitation and feminist propoganda of mental breakdown and filial distress Attercliffe in middle age steps out-not on to the field of sporting endevour but into the arena of contemporary events. David Storey whose recent novels have so eloquently evoked the rural Yorkshire childhood of his past here turns unflinchingly to the subject of family life in present times. -> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Penguin Books The date of this copy is 1985 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
