John Boynton Priestley (1894-1984) was pre-eminently a dramatist and a novelist. Many of his works have become 20th century literary classics, among them The Good Companions, Angel Pavement, An Inspector Calls and Time and the Conways. He was a founder of the campaign for nuclear disarmament and a champion of public lending rights. In literary, social and political terms he was very much 'a man for all seasons'.
"A Major novel. Nostagic but often disturbing" Sunday Express "If you've read this before, embark on a return journey. If you haven't, I envy you." from the introduction by Barry Cryer "His usual mastery and skill... an absorbing tale. The characters are brilliantly Drawn... alive and credible" Sunday Telegraph"
