Description
A Place in the Sun is a beautifully rendered and expertly deconstructed novel. Warsh’s stunningly effective use of multiple narratives, provided in exquisitely detailed lines, conveys an elastic and powerful emotional honesty. This is a sensual and desperate story from a writer with formidable powers of invention.
