Résumé

Présentation de l'éditeur Taking up where AN INVITATION TO THE WALTZ left off, THE WEATHER IN THE STREETS shows us Olivia Curtis ten years older, a failed marriage behind her, thinner, sadder, and apprently not much wiser. A chance encounter on a train with a man who enchanted her as a teenager leads to a forbidden love affair and a new world of secret meetings, brief phone calls and snatched liaisons in anonymous hotel rooms.Years ahead of its time when first published, this subtle and powerful novel shocked even the most stalwart Lehmann fans with its searing honesty and passionate portrayal of clandestine love. Biographie de l'auteur Rosamond Lehmann (1901-1990) was born at Bourne End, Bucks. She wrote her first novel, DUSTY ANSWER aged 26 & established her reputation with A NOTE IN MUSIC. One of the most distinguished novelists of the twentieth century, she was created a CBE in 1982.
