Description
Woven around the pursuits of the energetic spirits and erudite scholars of the University of St John and the Holy Ghost, this dazzling trilogy of novels lures the reader into a world of mysticism, historical allusion and gothic fantasy. Fusing themes of religion, love, art and music in a glorious celebration of humanism, The Cornish Trilogy like its predecessors The Salterton Trilogy and The Deptford Trilogy, affirms Robertson Davies's place at the forefront of contemporary writers.
