    "A writer of delicacy and insight."--The Seattle Times Many years ago, Mr. Golightly wrote a work of dramatic fiction that grew to be an astonishing international bestseller. But his reputation is on the decline and he finds himself badly out of touch with the modern world. He decides to take a holiday and comes to the historic village of Great Calne, hoping to use the opportunity to bring his great work up to date. But he soon finds that events take over his plans and that the themes he has written on are being strangely replicated in the lives of the villagers around him. As he comes to know his neighbors better, Mr. Golightly begins to examine his attitude toward love and to ponder the terrible catastrophe of his only son's death -- so, too, we begin to learn the true and extraordinary identity of Mr. Golightly. "Beautifully turned...quite clever and laced with genteel moments of emotional depth."--Newsday"[Mr. Golightly's Holiday] invites you to sit back and consider the large issues of remorse, redemption, and creation."--The Boston Globe"[Mr. Golightly's Holiday] sparkles with gems of greatness."--The Oklahoman"Wonderfully wry...a clever idea."--The Baltimore Sun Sally Vicers, a former university lecturer in literature, is a trained analytical psychologist and lectures widely on the connections between literature, psychology, and religion. She is the author of Miss Garnet's Angel and Instances of the Number 3. She lives in London and Bath.

    Following the death of Peter Hansome, his wife Bridget is contacted by Frances Slater, her late-husband's mistress. Though the two are from opposite sides of London and meet under the least desirable circumstances, the women become close friends. In a subtly wrought turn of events, Bridget and Frances discover that they have in common what is important to them most: their parallel memories of Peter, killed in a car accident, and the shared reality of his spirit form, haunting them still. A gracefully tuned feat of the imagination, Salley Vickers's novel is a rare celebration of life's most intriguing geometries, the love triangle.
