Meeting the English
Clanchy, Kate, 1965-2015
Large Print
Struan Robertson - orphan, genius, and just seventeen - leaves his dour native town of Cuik, and arrives in London in the freakish fine summer of 1989. His job is to care for Phillip, dumbfounded and paralysed by a massive stroke; because, though two teenage children, two wives, and a literary agent all rattle round Phillip's large house, they are each too busy with their peculiar obsessions to do it themselves. As the city bakes, Struan finds himself tangled in a midsummer's dream of mistaken identity, giddying property prices, wild swimming, and overwhelming passions. For everyone, it is to be a life-changing summer.
