An upper-middle class version of Mike Leigh's SECRETS AND LIES. (INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY)
Bawden has a penetraing eye for both the insalubrious and gorgeous detail, homing in with language that is always crisp and precise. (GUARDIAN)

Cloth. Condición: Very Good/Fine. First Edition. In six days Silas Mudd will celebrate his one hundredth birthday. He is alarmingly healthy and tough as old boots - which is more than can be said of his son Will. But there is no doubt that Silas's son - and his two daughters - will be at the party. Best outfits and good form are what they think Silas wants served up and they dare not disappoint him. Meanwhile, though grumpily flattered by the fuss - even from his irritating family - Silas's greater pleasure is 'to go over over his life' and the women he has loved and who 'made trouble for him'. But they've all gone now, and Silas is the only one left who knows exactly what is shoring up his family. So he sits, waiting and thinking, just wondering what it would be like if he were to tell.
