Description

Raymond causes a stir in country town Glaston when he buys Glastonbridge, a house of vast, neo-Gothic fantasy, abandoned for decades. It's an ambitious project, and all previous renovators have come to grief. Out of the woodwork come real estate agents, a jealous sister, the heritage council, prospective tourism operators and journalists, proffering opinions and making his life a misery. As the restoration goes on, Raymond becomes increasingly isolated, unable to trust anyone, alienating his friends and giving courage to his enemies. He believes that unseen forces are trying to remove him from his grand project. At turns pitied, admired, humoured and loved, Raymond undoubtedly has the knowledge, vision and fortune to make Glastonbridge thrive again – but will he be able to see it through? Glass Houses is a gentle satire with a rapier edge, perfectly capturing the socially mobile mid-nineties milieu of city folk with country houses. The final novel from acclaimed author and activist Anne Coombs is about finding your place of refuge and reaching for what you want.
