Putney Sofka Zinovieff AUGUST 2018 Putney Sofka Zinovieff From the acclaimed author comes a brilliant, challenging novel about a bohemian family in 1970s London and the consequences of a taboo relationship Sales points • Sofka Zinovieff 's previous books have received widespread critical acclaim. Her most recent, The Mad Boy, Lord Berners, My Grandmother and Me was a New York Times Editors ' Choice, 2015. Putney will have a major publicity campaign, including masses of author interviews and events. • Sensitively exploring a taboo subject (a sexual relationship between a child and an adult), this novel is a perfect book club read. • Will appeal to fans of Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst, Never Mind by Edward St Aubyn and Diary of a Teenage Girl by Phoebe Gloeckner. Description From the acclaimed author comes a brilliant, challenging novel about a bohemian family in 1970s London and the consequences of a taboo relationship Ralph Boyd 's first glimpse of 9 year-old Daphne will be etched on his mind forever. Dark, teasing, slippery as mercury, she seems neither boy nor girl, but sprite something elemental. An up-and-coming composer, Ralph is visiting the writer Edmund Greenslay at his riverside home in Putney to discuss a collaboration. In its colourful rooms and unruly garden, Ralph finds an intoxicating world of sensuous ease and bohemian abandon that captures the mood of the moment. Entranced, he knows he will return. But Ralph is twenty-five and Daphne is only a child, and even in the liberal 1970s a fast-burgeoning relationship between a man and his friend 's daughter must be kept secret. Years later, after a turbulent youth and a failed marriage, Daphne watches her twelve-year-old daughter Libby mimic the gestures of adult sexuality, and is finally forced to confront her own childhood and its shocking truths. Putney is a bold, thought-provoking novel about the moral lines we tread, the stories we tell ourselves and the eyes of society. Written in lyrical, evocative prose, it is a rich tale of family, friendship, guilt and responsibility.

  • Silence Us Again. Nancy Manahan Napa College
    Barbara Grier sets before us our entire literary heritage. Through her work we become visible to ourselves. This new expanded edition of The Lesbian in Literature is a must for the general reader as well as the serious collector. Here we meet all our ancestors and learn what they meant to their worlds and what they mean to our own. My own personal excitement about this book is beyond words. Jenny Feder Three Lives & Company, Ltd. Beginning with the first edition, The Lesbian in Literature has been a life line, helping me move from isolation and fear into a community of my Lesbian sisters and foremothers. It combats If the erasure of our past. It proclaims we have existed, we have struggled, we have loved, we have written. These affirmations are crucial at a time when patriarchal forces are mobilizing to silence us again. Nancy Manahan Napa College For ten years, The Lesbian in Literature bibliography has been my bible, almanac, and encyclopedia all rolled in one. Opening its pages is like opening a casket of jewels.
