About Very Heaven

What happens when all heaven breaks loose? The idyllic setting of a university town on the Mid-Wales coast. New arrivals from various parts of Britain, exhilarated and apprehensive at the prospect of grappling with the unfamiliar, in learning, ideas - and life. Four boys, extrovert, loner, poetry lover, aspiring intellectual. A malapropistic landlady. Three girls, one worldly, one demurely innocent, one full of adolescent ardour. A lecturer and would-be writer romantically inclined towards his students. And ever-present in all its moods, watching the human drama unfold, inspirer and tempter, lovely and sinister, the sea. The situation is ripe for a series of adventures, by turns comic, traumatic, poignant and, for one of the characters, ultimately tragic.
