No Remittance

Michael Joseph 1959 Hardback, 224pp. In this novel a young Englishman, able, ambitious, sanguine and silly, spoils a promising start as an architect in London and goes to the New Zealand of the 1900’s to try again. There the flaws in his character defeat him again and he drifts to the South where he marries into a family of Irish small farmers. The man tells the story in his old age and, while waiting for death, he can still recognize and be stirred by the young man he once was who could hardly wait for life. No DJ; Owner's Name inside. Some tanning to the end papers. Good.
