Description: POWELL, Anthony [229] pp. Heinemann 1960 First Printing 7 1/2" x 5 1/4" Wrapper design by Broom-Lynne The fifth volume of Powell's epic series "A Dance to the Music of Time" series is set in 1936-37, with the shadow of impending war in the background. Casanova’s Chinese Restaurant (1960), the fifth book, finds Nick marrying Isobel Tolland and launching happily into family life—including his new role as brother-in-law to Isobel’s many idiosyncratic siblings. But even as Nick’s life is settling down, those of his friends are full of drama and heartache: his best friend, Hugh Moreland, is risking his marriage on a hopeless affair, while Charles Stringham has nearly destroyed himself with drink. Full of Powell’s typically sharp observations about life and love, Casanova’s Chinese Restaurant offers all the rewards and frustrations, pleasures and regrets of one’s thirties.
