A Line to the Sea contains the reflections of Philip Burns on his life, his successes and failures as a teacher, poet, sea fisherman, operatic librettist, and husband. As a boy he discovered a flair for using words, enthusiasm for them, a distrust of religion, and no wish to be sociable. In this intensely personal final novel, Paul weaves a tale in three parts which contains many echoes of his own life.
