Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Clay and Rainbows: A Novel
Above all like a gigantic blind face the blue-black sky heavy with thunder.
A city of contrast; a city that, like some huge driven wheel, threw out sparks of light here and there, leav ing the darkness more foul and abominable. With, here, some thousands moving calmly to supper in brilliantly lighted places, and, there, black forms crouched on benches by an evil leering river whose eyes were the re?ections of lamps, and whose arms leaning over the Embankments were always inviting, pointing a way out, whose voice sang the icy slumber song of suicide.
