Description
''Unlike any other person I had come across, Welch seemed to be speaking particularly to me'' Alan Bennett''Vivid ... surprising ... an exquisite balance of pain and beauty'' GuardianOrvil Pym does not fit in. A waifish, eccentric, sensitive fifteen-year-old, he hates school and longs to be alone. Spending his Summer holidays in a genteel Surrey hotel with his mysterious father and two brothers who don''t understand him, he explores ancient churches, spies on a man rowing in the river and collects antiques, escaping into his own singular aesthetic world. First published in 1945, this is an unforgettable portrayal of a young man''s sensuous coming-of-age.''A heightened, sensual journey ... it is Orvil''s vibrant energy that allows this book to bubble ... beautifully odd ... spectacular'' Independent
