Description
The Swinging Sixties are fading as 'Infinite Riches' opens. This new tale starts where 'Chalk' finished: in a pub in Durham. The protagonists – Jill and Jay – have just met. Inauspiciously.
Jay, a spoilt boy, has grown up into a spoilt young man. Arrogant and self-centred, yet charismatic and clever.
Jill has matured into a beautiful, intelligent young woman: still a hostage to her upbringing and tangled sexuality, but determined to break the boundaries.
'Infinite Riches' is about the course of true love. Its uncertainty. Its turbulence. Its tantalising unreachability and, ultimately, its possible consummation.

Loved it! Set in the late sixties, and mainly 'up north' we follow the lives of students now entering the job market. Jay and Jill are the two main characters, but other interesting girls and boys appear also. This book had everything: beer (the author must have endured the research), Beethoven, bonking and the Bard with a little bit of rock climbing thrown in. The period was really well captured as people wrote letters (!) and had to use payphones...oh what we had to endure in those days! I did not realise this was the second book featuring the characters, but now downloaded and I am looking forward to it immensely.
