- Synopsis
- Mrs. Lillian Blunt has expected to live out the rest of her life in her quiet cottage by the sea, until a "nasty little man" appears at her gate with the message that her home will be bulldozed to make way for a new road. Mrs. Blunt determines to escape to the nation of Avalon, which she has always wanted to visit. She discovers, however, that her own country has been taken over by mob rule. Everyone is suspect; nothing is smooth. As tension mounts, Mrs. Blunt and a small group of other fugitives struggle to escape the mob and reach Avalon's unknown shores. This novel was originally published in 1965. This edition includes a critical introduction and a brief biography of the author, Annie Winifred Ellerman, who used Bryher as a lifelong pseudonym.
