Roy Fuller

    Roy Fuller bol básnik, ktorého dielo bolo z hľadiska štýlu spočiatku spájané s hnutím The Movement. Svoje témy skúmal prostredníctvom poézie a neskôr rozšíril svoj literárny prejav aj do prózy. Jeho premyslený prístup k jazyku a štruktúre ho označil za významnú literárnu postavu.

      Years after his divorce, George Garner has become a self-contained, dispassionate man. He sees his ex-wife as "a character out of a book." He divides his time between a career in a publishing house and writing a new book that he hopes will bolster his sagging reputation as a novelist. However, when William Widgery, and old school acquaintance, disappears, George is called on to help find him and he becomes caught in a net of people, events and emotions which are both intoxicating and evil. He shudders to realize that a second curtain has risen on his life, revealing a kind of puppet show which traumatizes and changes him.
