NON-RETURN.....DAI VAUGHAN

" A seaman survives five days in the Atlantic as his shipmates drown. He withdraws from life to the consolation of his allotment. His wife redefines her position in the post-War world. Their son ( the book's narrator) becomes a draughtsman. He would like to be a poet. He marries a librarian and together they have a daughter.....The book is a sumptuous novel of complex themes subtly examined:the politics of the workplace; the tricks played by memory; the distortions of power; and the significance of protest - most keenly explored in the death of the narrator's wife, a resident of the Greenham Common peace camp.....Interspersed with exquisitely written short fictions which give the narrative a cubist perspective, this is a dazzlingly innovative and quite unforgettable work from an ambitious, politicised, and deeply humane writer."

The book is in very good condition.Light reading wear and clean and unmarked throughout. Covers have slight corner curls in places and are in good order.
