Winner of the Man Booker Prize 1988
Peter Carey's novel of the undeclared love between clergyman Oscar Hopkins and the heiress Lucinda Leplastrier is both a moving and beautiful love story and a historical tour de force set in Victorian times.
Made for each other,the two are gamblers - one obsessive,the other compulsive - incapable of winning at the game of love.
