Description for Earth and Heaven
Paperback. 'In this beautiful novel, Sue Gee.. has dared to take on a difficult, grief-stricken period of English history, and done so with sensitivity and understanding; EARTH AND HEAVEN is the clever, compelling result' The Times Num Pages: 416 pages. BIC Classification: FA. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 199 x 128 x 27. Weight in Grams: 294.
In the aftermath of the First World War, the painter Walter Cox cherishes the place of his childhood to keep the pulse of his art alive. Haunted by his work, his young daughter Meredith has her own fight: to quell the power of her inner life.
Deeply affecting, shot through with a shimmering apprehension of the natural world, EARTH AND HEAVEN is about life's fragility, and the power of love and painting to disturb, renew and reveal us to ourselves.
