SYNOPSIS
In the West of Ireland in 1939 a young novelist rents a lonely cottage to write his new book in peace.
Almost at once, and without great resistance, he is seduced by the wife of the local squire. Harriet''s husband is an older man - hot-tempered, impoverished, gone to seed - who once fought famously against the Black and Tans. Soon this eternal triangle becomes a local scandal, and the atmosphere of threat and violence, intensified by the approaching war in Europe, leads to a horrific murder.
The Private Wound is Nicholas Blake''s last book, written with such intensity of feeling and depth of character that it is widely regarded as his best.
"Really splendid. When they come round to having a Crime-writer Laureate, Mr Blake''s brow is there for the wreathing" - The Times

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Nicholas Blake
Nicholas Blake é o pseudónimo do poeta Cecil Day-Lewis. Nascido na Irlanda em 1904, Day-Lewis cresceu em Londres e licenciou-se pela Universidade de Oxford em 1927, tendo publicado em 1925 a sua primeira coletânea de poemas. De forma a conseguir um rendimento suplementar àquele que lhe advinha da sua obra lírica, trabalhou como professor, crítico literário e editor e, em 1935, lançou, com o pseudónimo Nicholas Blake, a sua primeira história policial, A Question of Proof, já protagonizada pelo atraente detetive Nigel Strangeways, que viria a marcar presença em quase todos os vinte romances de mistério que Blake assinaria. Em 1968, Cecil Day-Lewis foi nomeado Poeta Laureado do Reino Unido. Faleceu em 1972 em casa do escritor Kingsley Amis, seu amigo.
