“This is an original and haunting first novel, a serious study of a deep homosexual relationship between a rich painter of thirty-nine and a sophisticated and witty eighteeen-year-old. The subject is treated in depth and is finely characterised.” —Pamela Hansford Johnson (novelist wife of C.P. Snow)
