Lofthouse, Jacqui BLUETHROAT MORNING
London Bloomsbury Publishing, Limited 2000 074754834x / 9780747548348 First British Edition Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket
Dust jacket in protective Mylar, grey bookmark bound into headband. Light edgewear, sticker pull over bar code on back of DJ. A touching story of grief, suicide and redemption. "Six years after the death of his young wife, one-time supermodel Alison Oakley, 58-year-old Harry Bliss walks out on his London teaching job barely a week before he is due to retire. He is determined to visit Glaven, the small English town where Alison lived before she walked into the ocean one "bluethroat morning," and discover what exactly led up to her death. After a descent into anorexia at the end of her modeling career, Alison recovered by writing a bestselling, prize-winning novel about the modeling industry. Around the same time, she met and married Harry, who gave her the time and privacy to write. Though bestsellerdom proved nearly as stressful as supermodeldom, Alison had retreated to Glaven and was working apace on her next novel, when she apparently destroyed her manuscript and took her life. Why? Harry is not alone in his quest. He is accompanied by Helen Cregar, the 19-year-old daughter of his best friend and the only woman who has interested him since his wife's death, and followed by hangers-on, journalists and even another academic. The clues Harry needs most are given up slowly by nonagenarian Ern Higham, who teaches Harry about white-throated and blue-throated birds and keeps safe one of Alison's last possessions."
