520 _a"Meg, youngest daughter of George Plumb ... struggles from his shadow to lead her own. Round her a younger generation grows up - Esther, married to a millionaire tycoon; Alfred, banished homosexual, into whose world Meg makes nervous forays; and the youngest, Robert, a recluse whose goodness Meg recognizes but cannot understand. For over fifty years, through two wars, the Depression and the post-war boom, she fights for self-knowledge against a backdrop of a detention camp, courtrooms, parties and family gatherings, a war-surplus scandal, a financial collapse, fringe religion, love in marriage and out of it, and death bost peaceful and violent. And, always, dominant in the shadows, is the figure of George Plumb."--Jacket.
