In UNCLAY, the author's final masterpiece, John Death arrives in the obscure Dorset village of Little Dodder with instructions to 'unclay' two of its inhabitants. Unfortunately for him, Death loses the divine chit bearing the names of the doomed pair, and is obliged to stay in Little Dodder until he finds it. And in the course of that summer he acquires a taste for life... Despite several grim scenes, Unclay's final message is unexpectedly light-hearted. A major 20th Century novel.
