All her life, Amy Evans has struggled against an unkind gift of fate - ugliness. A squat nose stubbed like a pasticine afterthought on her face, a chin too long and eyes training to meet each other, form a sad picture that dooms Amy to a life of solitude and lovelessness.
Now in her fifties, Amy lives with her disabled brother, both prisoners of the hopes and aspirations of their youth. Then Amy makes a final bid for happiness, a last-ditch attempt to meet someone she can love... who might love her. Suddenly her life takes on dizzying new dimensions as she explores untrodden paths of sexual awareness in an all-or-nothing gamble for dangrous and delicious success.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Amy Evans retained all her life the squat nose of her childhood, stubbed on to her face like a plasticine afterthought, a chin too long for any practical purpose, and eyes so close together that it seemed the sole function of the bridge of her nose was too keep them apart. For comfort she would go down to the beach, where the breeze from the sea blew into her face her share of the beauty to which her brother had so liberally helped himself. The gulls would wait for her to leave, no matter how long she stayed, for they were real gentlemen - the only gentlemen she was ever to meet in her life. Now in her late fifties, Amy faces a struggle on two fronts. Loneliness looms the larger as the chance of finding love grows more remote. Survival depends on the outcome of her search for a love object, and "I Sent a Letter to My Love", set in Porthcawl on the coast of South Wales, tells the moving and unsentimental story of Amy's bold play for happiness, and her dangerous success. The richly comic gifts, the wit and inventiveness that distinguished all Bernice Rubens' work are reinforced in this novel by a maturity and depth of compassion for her characters. Tells the story of Amy Evans' bold play for happiness, and her dangerous success. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
