Beschreibung
The book was envisioned by Golding as a historical novel with a moral struggle at its core, which was originally intended to have two settings:- both the Middle Ages & modern day. Jocelin, the Dean of the cathedral, directs the construction of a towering spire funded by his aunt, Lady Alison, a mistress of the former King. The project is carried on against the advice of many, and in particular the warnings of the master builder, Roger Mason. The cathedral has insufficient foundations to support a spire of the magnificence demanded by Jocelin, but he believes he has been chosen by God and given a vision to erect a great spire to exalt the town and to bring its people closer to God. / This is a 1st edition hardback with its dustjacket (designed by John Piper) in good condition-the dustjacket is 'browning' & marked.
