Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sins of the Children a Novel
When Peter Guthrie laughed the rooks stirred on the old trees behind the Bodleian and the bored cab drivers who lolled in uncomfortable attitudes on their cabs in St. Giles perked up their heads. He threw open his door one morning and leaving one of these laughs of his rolling round the quad of St. John's College found the recumbent form of Nicho las Kenyon all among his cushions as usual, and as usual smoking his cigarettes and reading his maga zines. The words '5 as usual seemed to be stamped on his forehead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
