Inhaltsangabe

These are the Roaring Twenties. Life in England has picked itself up after the war. But things are not as they were. Times are changing on all fronts, especially in the norms of social conduct. The worlds of the Wellington-Smythes, Larkins and Randalls are about to collide. Revelations from the past and the consequences of selfish behaviour of the day throw family against family. Antics of the "Bright Young People" of the time, made famous by the tabloid press and by writers such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Evelyn Waugh, play against a darkened canvas.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Michael Dawes Michael was born in the Clifton district of Bristol. His father's family owned a blacksmith business in the early 1900s near Blackboy Hill in the city, the wrinkled, faded old black and white photographs of which provided the inspiration for the Larkins family and “The Forge” in the book. He went to junior school in nearby Henleaze and moved to the London area at the age of eleven. His first serious piece of original writing was a one act play in Spanish when he was seventeen. Michael is a graduate of the University of Cambridge (Queens’ College), where he studied Modern Languages (Spanish and Italian), and an alumnus of Harvard Business School. His working life has been in civil aviation. Married with two sons, he lives in Surrey, where he acts and directs for a local amateur dramatic society. This is his first novel.
