Summary
Owen Morgan, an Oxford undergraduate, returns to his family home on the rural north coast of Wales for the summer. Having left for university and completing his first year with a month in Germany, Owen returns as a changed man, altered by his experience of independence, new friendships, and the exploration of desire. While back at home, Owen recovers the feelings he had for his cousin Nest, while he tries to come to terms with his conflicted desires and struggles to align his own selfhood with the push and pull of love.
Author Biography
Goronwy Rees (1909 – 1979) was a Welsh journalist, academic, and writer. Born in Aberystwyth as the youngest son of four of Reverend Richard Rees and Apphla James, the family moved to Cardiff in 1923, where Rees gained a scholarship to New College, Oxford. As an undergraduate Rees wrote his first novel, The Summer Flood (1932), the first of ten books he would write during his lifetime. Graduating with a First and as an elected Fellow of All Souls, Rees turned to journalism, spending much of the 1930s reporting from Berlin.
