Claudia Hampton - beautiful, famous, independent, dying. But she
remains defiant to the last, telling her nurses that she will write
a 'history of the world . . . and in the process, my own'. And it
is her story from a childhood just after the First World War
through the Second and beyond. But Claudia's life is entwined with
others and she must allow those who knew her, loved her, the chance
to speak, to put across their point of view. There is Gordon,
brother and adversary; Jasper, her untrustworthy lover and father
of Lisa, her cool conventional daughter; and then there is Tom, her
one great love, found and lost in wartime Egypt.
