Description:

'A vivid and totally original imagination' Scotsman

Synopsis:

Growing up in an isolated cottage in the hills of Cumberland, Tom knows the bitter cold of shooting expeditions with his grandfather and long evenings spent with his father and mother. But taken away from the hills to live in the small town of Thornton, Tom experiences a tumult of conflicting emotions which he must master before he can come to terms with his identity. First published in 1965, FOR WANT OF A NAIL was acclaimed as the debut of a distinctive and talented new writer.
