From the publisher
The Trick of It by Michael Frayn is a compelling drama, a vivid study of obsession and a playful account of life at the fringes of the creative world.

He has devoted his life to studying and teaching them, even though he is four times as clever as she is.

Maybe he has a chance to resolve the one remaining mystery at the heart of things . . .
