Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners very slightly bruised, not price clipped (£3.50), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age, in bright unfaded jacket. 271pp. British novelist Gillian Freeman's (1929-2019), gentle, seemingly unexceptional but quite astute story of a marriage which subsisted on romantic wishfulness, acceptance and avoidance. Marion, just an English schoolgirl when she fell in love with Johnny Hartman a 'Yank', who epitomized her American dream of a better, brighter world than Henley-on-Thames. After the war naive Marion gets a chance to go to New York to see Johnny and marry him, for the first time, in front of a slot machine in a Village bar. The marriage becomes official some time later, and on and off, backward and forward through the years. She confronts, consciousness lowered and eyes averted, Johnny's over bearing mother, his adulteries with older women and their divided views over their children from the choice of a name to his impossible, destructive achievement test for his son. This is Gillian Freeman's most accessible novel, chipping away at lives and lifestyles while essentially talking about many of the things which will be more assertively articulated in the next decade, without even mentioning the idea of woman's liberation. Quite a scarce book.
