Produktinformationen zu „The Dreyfus Trials (ePub)“
The sea roars dismally round the shores of Inverara. A Stranger takes a room on the island. Here lives a couple whose married years have been joyless, until the presence of the Stranger unleashes their passions…
For as spring softens the wild beauty of Inverara, the Stranger becomes conscious of the dark-haired Mary - how summer makes her shiver with life. He is the first man she has ever loved, and she thrills with sexual awakening.
But with autumn comes danger. Peasants mutter superstition against Mary; Red John laughs at nothing, there's murder in his eyes; and a madman's yell hurls the Stranger back to sanity . . . .
Intense, compelling, beautifully descriptive - as Wuthering Heights is to the Yorkshire moors, so The Black Soul is to the Aran Islands.

Autoren-Porträt von Guy Chapman
Guy Chapman was born in London in 1889 and educated at Oxford, where he trained to be a lawyer. When war was declared he joined the Royal Fusiliers and served on the Western Front, surviving a mustard gas attack; Chapman also served in World War II. Following the First World War, he worked as an editor for several publishing houses - it was through this career that he met his wife, writer Storm Jameson, whom he married in 1926. Chapman's chief literary works from the 1930s onwards analysed French political system and modern French history, and his time in war; in addition to writing seven books during his life, Chapman also served as Professor of Modern History at University of Leeds (1945-53), and later a visiting Professor at University of Pittsburgh (1948-9). Chapman died in 1972.
