Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A rich and engaging novel of eighteenth century life in rural Derbyshire, based around the relationships between two men and one woman, of a rare quality which has attracted comparisons with the great novelists of the nineteenth century. "A first novel of quite exhilarating brilliance...as richly absorbing a debut as I have read in years." "Sunday Telegraph".

Synopsis:

"The Temple of Optimism" tells the tale of the relationships of two men and one woman in Derbyshire in 1788. Superficially, the plot is simple: Anthony Apreece covets the land of his young neighbour, Edward Horne. Edward covets Daisy, Anthony's wife.
