Anna Parrish and Ruby Smith have been close friends since childhood, with Anna being the traditionally beautiful, dominant one and Ruby the impulsive, less classically attractive counterpart. Now young women, they plan to meet at an artists' workshop in central France during the transformative period of the late sixties. Their lives are filled with sensual dreams and a yearning for freedom. After briefly visiting friends, Ruby arrives at the workshop only to find Anna missing and the workshops disappointing. Following rumors, she ventures south to the wilds of the Camargue, where she encounters Caleb 'Caley' Hanson, an American poet and Anna's brief lover. Both are searching for Anna, trying to understand her sudden departure. Amidst the heat and rich atmosphere of summer, Ruby and Caley find solace and the potential for a deeper connection. However, Anna's absence raises questions: is there something sinister behind it, or is she simply charting her own path? As Ruby and Caley journey north to uncover the truth, they face unexpected challenges that test their limits. This sensuous, dreamlike narrative, first published in 1971, explores the complexities of friendship and love as they navigate a brave new world, showcasing Brackenbury's mature poetic style.
