Описание: "Patrick Gale has written a book which manages to be both tender and epic, and carries the unmistakable tang of a true story. I loved it." -- Jojo Moyes

A privileged elder son, and stammeringly shy, Harry Cane has followed convention at every step. Even the beginnings of an illicit, dangerous affair do little to shake the foundations of his muted existence - until the shock of discovery and the threat of arrest cost him everything.

Forced to abandon his wife and child, Harry signs up for emigration to the newly colonised Canadian prairies.

Remote and unforgiving, his allotted homestead in a place called Winter is a world away from the golden suburbs of turn-of-the-century Edwardian England. And yet it is here, isolated in a seemingly harsh landscape, under the threat of war, madness and an evil man of undeniable magnetism that the fight for survival will reveal in Harry an inner strength and capacity for love beyond anything he has ever known before.

In this exquisite journey of self-discovery, loosely based on a real life family mystery, Patrick Gale has created an epic, intimate human drama, both brutal and breathtaking. This is a novel of secrets, sexuality and, ultimately, of great love.

Описание: Youthful beauty, intellectual brilliance, physical passion, tragedy and disgrace are all in, this wonderful new Patrick Gale novel, as told thrgh the eyes of a 14-year-old girl. Phil is a self-contained, exceptionally bright child, who has no known parents and has spent all her life in a children's home. Her life is transformed, when she wins a scholarship to Tatham's, a kind of Oxbridge university for teenagers, but this is only the start of an education as much emotional as intellectual. She falls hopelessly in love with Lucas, adored gay son of a wealthy Jewish family and, through him, is drawn into a tangle of betrayed friendship and forbidden passions that ends in tragedy and disgrace. But school is only half the story. Spanning the years 1975 to 1979, the chapters alternate between terms and holidays, between Phil's dogged pursuit of the glittering prizes and her slow, painful discovery of, who she is and where she belongs. Through other people's families, and especially other people's mothers, she learns as much about the mysterious laws of class and love, as she learns from her teachers, about the Latin and Greek that will prove her passport to security.
