Synopsis

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Handsome, proud, reprehensible, misunderstood - Dominic Langton is all of these things and more. He is the dark heart of A Difficult Young Man. His brother Guy can scarcely understand where he fits into the pattern of things or what he might do next. Martin Boyd's consistently popular novel is an elegant, witty and compelling family tale about the contradictions of growing up. The winner of the Australian Literature Society Gold Medal in 1956, this profound work deserves to be read by a modern audience.
