The fourth in the series. The once illustrious, once wealthy Melroses are in peril. Caught up in the wreckage of broken promises, child-rearing, adultery and assisted suicide, Patrick finds his wife Mary consumed by motherhood, his mother in thrall to a New Age foundation, and his young son Robert understanding far more than he should. But even as the family struggles against the pull of its ever-present past, a new generation brings new tenderness and the possibility of change. 'With the piercing funniness of St Aubyn at his brilliant best' this is a big and openhearted novel in the series. 279pp, paperback.
