The Sandcastle (Vintage Classics Murdoch Series) by Murdoch, Iris, Mamata, Bidisha SK

Description

It’s all dry sand running through the fingers.’

When Bill Mor falls in love with Rain Carter he discovers a new way of

being and a new joy in the world and his surroundings. To be with Rain he

must abandon his prosaic life as a schoolmaster, his domineering wife Nan and

his troubled teenaged children. He must draw on the powers of selfishness,

hatred and anger in order to make the final break. But what love could

survive all that violence?
