A child is born to a single mother. His feckless father has
vanished, leaving the mother to cope as best she can, watched over
by a kindly Jamaican. A country cottage is visited by a young
hotographer, whose happiest days of childhood were spent there; he
longs to live in it again but first must negotiate the duplicities
of adult and professional politics. Intimations of immortality,
nostalgia and dreams of excape to a reggae or post-hippy lifestyle
permeate these interwoven histories. A vivid London of the
day-before-yesterday is evoked against apprehensions of a more
ideal form of existence.
