It's certainly the only one that's ever reprinted regularly. My copies of Return to Night and The Friendly Young Ladies are all battered and archaic, and I've never been able to find some of the others outside of libraries.
I'm still surprised that The Charioteer hasn't been made into a film.
and a couple of hours after the letter arrived, my dad phoned to say that she'd just died.
