Strangers and Brothers Omnibus v 3 Author:C. P. Snow Three novels in one! — *Corridors of Power (1955-59) — *The Sleep of Reason (1963-64) — *Last Things (1964-68) — "Lord Snow has established himself in an eminent and conspicuous position among contemporary novelists," said the New Statesmen on the completion of Strangers & Brothers. This final volume opens with Lewis Eliot tracing the career of a yo... more »ung Tory M.P, fighting a lonely ban-the-bomb campaign in the Cabinet. From the corriders of power, the world of press lobbies, country-house parties and driving ambition, Eliot turns back to his boyhood home: he takes up an old friendship, becomes involved in a devastating murder trial and then takes time off to re-evaluate as, in Last Things, C.P. Snow brings his novel sequence to a triumphant conclusion.
"Unique and individual, it is a fine achievement."
