Lucy Hamilton's existence has become a 'still life'. No more than a creation by her artistic husband, Charles, she is a woman whose identity is disappearing as her beauty slowly wanes. Originally an inspiration in her husband's paintings, their relations have eroded to a listless formality, and he paints in absolute privacy.
They have moved to live on an isolated English island. Lucy's days are occasionally punctuated by fellow inhabitants of the sparsely populated community: Norman, the melancholy photographer, Jorgen, and the hopelessly conventional Landies.
Into their frozen lives comes a stranger: a beautiful, sensual young man, whose own personality is an enigmatic secret. Suddenly Lucy's days are lit with anticipation - but darkened by the complex emotions that his presence arouses, and the relationship it causes her to reassess.
Soft cover, fairly good condition. The cover shows minor signs of wear.
