Book still in a very good condition. >>> Much praised by the press at the time. (1988) >>> At one level the short novel included, "Prelude and Fugue", is a tale of sinister, ghostly goings-on in London during the Blitz; on another it is an excursion into a young woman's subconscious and threats of nothing less than repression, guilt, incest, jealousy, betrayal, love, sex, life and death. Yet there is room left over for chrysanthemum tea, Noel Coward's songs, hurdy-gurdies, "Washington Square", backwater Dorset, a prince riding a white horse, and as the buzz-bombs drop owls hooting in Chelsea and foxes running wild in Mayfair.
