This novel underlines the theme of loyalty, to one's class, to one's country, to one's ideals and to the truth. Catherine Hillary is commissioned to write the biography of a dead politician and in the process she gains a perspective on her own life, but at some cost. Iasabel Colegate is author of "The Shooting Party". "Deceits of Time" will be one of Hamish Hamilton's submissions for the Booker Prize.

Cloth-backed boards. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Octavo, pp 216, a slight suggestion of foxing to the fore-edge, a bit age-toned but otherwise extremely clean and sound internally, half-cloth and marbled boards in very good condition. [Limited edition of 150 numbered copies, signed by the author.].{Catherine Hillery, recently widowed and a biographer of modest attainments is pleased to be asked to write the authorised life of Neil Campion, a politician of the 1930s, now dead. With the apparent approval of the Campion family she begins to investigate the life and early death of this once promising public man. It soon appears that someone else is working on the same subject, and that there is a curious shortage of material about Campion's activities during the early years of the war.}. Signed by Author.
