Articoli correlati a Billy's Drift
This is the story of Billy Stuart. It tells of the hours he spends on the hills, catching rabbits in his bare hands or walking with his beloved dog, Drift. It tells of his troubles, his shocking accident and the mysterious events leading up to it. But it's the story too of the narrator Theresa Thain. It tells her account of what happened eleven years before, and is interspersed with extracts from her diary of the following year, revealing her complex, often frustrating relationship with Billy. The two stories, though separate, are inextricably linked in their absorbing attempts to get to the heart of a seemingly impenetrable enigma. "Jet Smoke and Dragon Fire", was Ashton's first published novel, and was shortlisted for the Guardian Children's Fiction Award in 1992, and the W.H. Smith Mindboggling Books Award in 1993. The first book in a trilogy, it was followed by "Into the Spiral" and "The Shining Bridge". Charles Ashton has also written a story for younger readers, "Ruth and the Blue Horse" (1994).

Descrizione libro Hard Cover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. First. An As New copy in an As New dustjacket which is not price clipped. 287 pages. 'Whatever he tried to look at, whatever he tried to think of, it always came back to one thought: a dog, a dog, a real living dog - a dog of his own.' This is the story of Billy Stuart. It tells of the hours he spends on the hills, and of the dog he's obsessed by, of his shocking accident and the mysterious events surrounding it. But its the story too of the narrator, Theresa Thain, who, eleven years later, recalls these events. Her account is interspersed with extracts from the diary she kept afterwards, as her relationship with Billy, complex and often frustrating, developed. The two stories, though separate, are inextricably linked in their absorbing attempts to get to the heart of a seemingly impenetrable enigma. 2 Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Codice articolo 011187
