Full description for Moon Tiger

• Claudia Hampton is beautiful, famous, independent, and dying. But she remains defiant to the last, telling her nurses that she will write a 'history of the world ...and in the process, my own'. And it is her story from a childhood just after the First World War through the Second and beyond. But Claudia's life is entwined with others and she must allow those who knew her, loved her, the chance to speak, to put across their point of view. There is Gordon, brother and adversary; Jasper, her untrustworthy lover and father of Lisa, her cool conventional daughter; and, then there is Tom, her one great love, found and lost in wartime Egypt. "Moon Tiger" is a haunting story of loss and desire.
