About this book
A familiar song rises above the noise of a rain-soaked London street, and Henry Aylwin believes he recognises Winifred's voice. Leaving a crowded theatre with his mother and aunt, he tries to glimpse the young woman selling woven baskets beneath a lamp. The moment turns an ordinary carriage ride into a scene of painful recognition, giving this love story an immediate sense of longing and uncertainty.
Theodore Watts-Dunton joins that personal drama to questions about reason, belief and obligations to the dead. A dispute over returning a valuable cross to a tomb places practical caution against the force of a promise. In his preface, the author explains the novel's governing idea as a renewed capacity for wonder, linking it to poetry and painting.
