Time Must Have a Stop

Sebastian Barnack, a handsome English schoolboy, is on bad terms with his socialist father, who disapproves of his hedonistic lifestyle. He escapes to Florence in order to learn about life.

His education there, thanks to the contradictory influences of his scurrilous Uncle Eustace and a saintly bookseller, is both sacred and profane.

Key Highlights:

• A story of self-discovery and conflicting values.
• Set against the backdrop of Florence, rich in culture and history.
• Explores themes of family conflict, hedonism, and moral growth.

A haunting novel from one of the twentieth century's most powerful commentators.
