The Book and the Brotherhood: A Story about Love and Friendship and Marxism (Penguin Fiction)

A story about love and friendship and Marxism

Many years ago Gerard Hernshaw and his friends â€œcommissionedâ€ one of their number to write a political book.

Time passes and opinions change. â€œWhy should we go on supporting a book which we detest?â€ Rose Curtland asks. â€œThe brotherhood of Western intellectuals versus the book of history,â€ Jenkin Riderhood suggests. The theft of a wife further embroils the situation. Moral indignation must be separated from political disagreement.

Tamar Hernshaw has a different trouble and a terrible secret. Can one die of shame? In another quarter a suicide pact seems the solution. Duncan Cambus thinks that since it is a tragedy, someone must die. Someone dies. Rose, who has gone on loving without hope, at least deserves a reward.
