Description

Penguin. Paperback. Good. . How does a man addicted to routine - a man who flosses his teeth before love-making - cope with the chaos of everyday life? Macon does his best. He writes Armchair Tourist guidebooks that soothe the travel-hating businessman. Even when his son, Ethan, is murdered and his wife leaves him, Macon folds his anguish neatly back into place and adapts the household routine to run on more efficient lines. So when he meets Muriel the dog-trainer - thin, chaotic, outrageous and vulnerable - he considers his defences against love and pain are in excellent working order.. Reprint. Some creasing to cover and spine. Light wear to cover. Internally neat and tight. This edition London:1986. First published 1985.
