All The Beauty Of The Sun (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
At once he turned back to the roses, concentrating on the grey thorns that grew thickly all along their stems. He felt as though his heart might break out of his chest, a cowardly feeling, one, he supposed, that adulterers must endure from time to time. Only he hadn’t expected this feeling so soon; he had hoped that a fair god might have given him a little more time with Iris. He should have known that there was only Daniel’s god, vengeful and pedantic. He took off his spectacles, folded them and placed them in his shirt pocket; he didn’t want them broken; nor did he want to appear older and weaker than he was. Turning to face him he said, ‘Shall we go inside?’ ‘Yes. That would be for the best, I think. More private. I think you will want this to be kept private.’ George looked up at those few windows that overlooked his garden. He wasn’t on speaking terms with any of his neighbours, not since Paul’s conviction; it didn’t matter to him at all if they witnessed his further humiliation.
