- Synopsis
- The first novel from the acclaimed author of Mr. Wroe's Virgins and The Voyage Home. Orph is a strange, silent, friendless young man. Emma meets him when she comes to work at the children&’s home where he lives. She offers him a room in her student flat. But there, amid the love affairs and politics of university life, Orph&’s alienation only grows deeper, and his lonely course has the most desperate of consequences. &“The writing has a bony strength, the descriptive scenes are compelling though impressionistic, like a documentary screen come true.&” —The Guardian &“There can be none better than Jane Rogers&’ harsh, lyrical and relentlessly realistic Separate Tracks . . . This is a sad and dramatic story, deeply felt though never stridently written. It is a remarkable first novel, breaking new ground.&” —Financial Times &“Deftly, powerfully done. It deserves to rank with The Collector.&” —New Society
