About this audiobook
Paul Morel's artistic soul is the battleground for a war between spiritual communion and physical passion. Caught between the intense, suffocating love of his mother and the demands of two very different lovers, he struggles to find his own identity. The industrial smoke of Nottinghamshire mirrors the clouded, tumultuous landscape of his inner life. This is a definitive coming-of-age story that lays bare the devastating power of a mother's hold.
