Book description
In the aftermath of the First World War, the painter Walter Cox
cherishes the place of his childhood to keep the pulse of his art alive.
Haunted by his work, his young daughter Meredith has her own fight: to
quell the power of her inner life. Deeply affecting, shot through with a
shimmering apprehension of the natural world, EARTH AND HEAVEN is about
life's fragility, and the power of love and painting to disturb, renew
and reveal us to ourselves. Sue Gee is Programme Leader for the MA
Writing Programme at Middlesex University, and lives in London.
