Résumé

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY D. J. TAYLORThese three brilliant novels span Henry Green's career as a novelist and display his unique talents as a writer. Nothing is a tale of the merry-go-round of love, marriage and infidelity, and the ceaseless tussle of innocence versus experience. Doting sets the middle-aged male infatuation for pretty girls against the comfortable affection of wives and old friends, delving into the complications of burgeoning affairs and boring marriages.
In Blindness, Green's first novel, a young man is blinded in a senseless accident but thereafter discovers new imaginative powers.
