8vo, 239pp. Original red hardcover binding, with gilt lettering to spine. With dust jacket.

Inscribed by the author to the South African novelist, poet and academic Stephen Gray.

Jim...and Sarah Rider meet at a party. Jim is long-haired, gallant (after his own fashion) and has an irrepressible urge to make girls happy. All of them. But Sarah...Sarah’s different. She’s a special girl. A Circle of Hands is romantic and sexy, lyrical and hilarious. What warms the cockles is the sheer, uncomplicated joy Jim and Sarah have in falling in love-and staying in love.” (from the synopsis on the front flap of dust jacket of book)
