The Heat of the Day
Book Description
Stella and Robert, the novel's lovers, are 'creatures of history, whose coming together was of a nature possible in no other day.' This is not so much a grand claim for the peculiarity of their situation as a simple truth about how things were in London during the Second World War: 'War time, with its makeshifts, shelvings, deferrings, could not have been kinder to romantic love.'
