A middle-aged bookshop proprietor marries a widowed shopkeeper but their chance for late-in-life happiness is threatened by his obsessive miserliness. Their only hope for survival lies in their servant's warm-hearted generosity. Winner of the 1924 James Tait Black Memorial Prize, England's oldest literary award, this powerful exploration of sexual hunger and repression offers an atmospheric re-creation of London's harsh post-World War I mood.
