Go Swift and Far - A Novel of Bath

Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

Go Swift & Far is a sweeping coming of age saga that exposes the deceit and hypocrisy lurking behind the genteel facades of the famous City of Bath. Born during the wartime German raids on Bath in the Spring of 1942, an orphan boy, alone and destitute, is determined to survive. The City is immersed in a cycle of greed, abuse of privilege, corruption, and demolition as it struggles out of post-war gloom and austerity. How should Bath rise from the ashes? How to balance necessary modernist reconstruction with classical preservation? The boy, now a man, is bent on success and wealth, whatever the personal sacrifice and cost to England’s Finest Georgian City.
