Mycket gott skick. Skyddsomslag i mycket gott skick.
Oliver, the dispenser's son, adolescent in the England of two-seaters, the silent screen, the Savoy Orphans.
And round
him, in the small huddle of houses by a minimal river that is Stilbourne, are woven the complicated, recurring yet never identical patterns of existence; patterns compounded of sex and calf love, rebellion and submission, dottiness, class distinction, tragedy and near-farce. The Pyramid is rich with superbly observed characters: Miss Dawlish the music teacher; the sex-pot Evie Babbacombe; Bobby Ewan with his airs and red motorbike; the elegant, elongated Mr de Tracey, engaged to produce The King of Hearts for the Stilbourne Operatic Society. And Stilbourne itself is created with loving but detached precision.
The Pyramid's three separate episodes form an organic and satisfying whole a book which represents a new, unexpected and fascinating departure in Mr Golding's work.
