Wonder-worker

the long version

A famous concert-pianist; a famous healer; a child whose birth raises questions of far-reaching significance. Contains vivid descriptions of the musical world and insight into problems connected with the various branches of unorthodox healing. The action shifts from England to Italy and back again, with characters being portrayed with ironical brilliance and affection. The two leading characters, Zero and Rosalind, from the author's previous works "Just Was My Lot" and "The Face of the Tempter", are further developed. The whole story is one of compassionate humanity, compelling depth and dramatic power, enlivened with flashes of delightful humour.
