ABOUT
THE BOOK

In The Famished Lover, Alan Cumyn has created Ramsay Crome, an artist who never quite comes home from the First World War. Burning with an intense appetite for beauty, for human contact, for life and love, Ramsay stumbles into a troubled marriage just as the gears of history are aligning for depression and more war.
