Summary |
Roses were Donald Pinnock's special flowers - they could well be said to represent Coralie Marsh, whom Donald marries. Donald's family consider he has offended against respectability and good taste with his marriage to Coralie, who is twenty years younger than him. But Coralie's catalytic presence in the home soon forces re-examination of those threadbare precepts with which Donald's mother and his sister Jean shore up their precarious existence. This is a portrait of three women, each different, but whose relationships are, in the end, mutually dependent and destructive |
