'In this holy community she would play the witch.'
Imber Court is a quiet haven for lost souls, a
utopia for those who can neither live in the world, nor out of it. But
beneath the gentle daily routines of this community run currents of supressed
desire, religious yearning and a legend of disastrous love. Charming,
indolent Dora arrives in their midst, and half-unwittingly conjures these
submerged things to the surface.
'A tragi-comic masterpiece... a magnificent novel.' Susan Hill, The Lady
