James and Matthew spend a summer weekend in 1954 with Henry Tillotson at his inherited country house. All are looking forward to the planned midsummer dinner party. This novel spans 40 years and is the story of a man whose flaws are redeemed by kindness, wit and generosity.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
