In J. L. Carr's deeply charged poetic novel, Tom Birkin, a veteran
of the Great War and a broken marriage, arrives in the remote
Yorkshire village of Oxgodby where he is to restore a recently
discovered medieval mural in the local church. Living in the bell
tower, surrounded by the resplendent countryside of high summer,
and laboring each day to uncover an anonymous painter's depiction
of the apocalypse, Birkin finds that he himself has been restored
to a new, and hopeful, attachment to life. But summer ends, and
with the work done, Birkin must leave. Now, long after, as he
reflects on the passage of time and the power of art, he finds in
his memories some consolation for all that has been lost.
