Light wear on the corners of the dustjacket price intact inscribed by a previous owner. Blue boards lettered in gilt on the spine headband. Set in the 1950s and seen through the perspective of the middle child, 11-year-old Corrie, A Perfect Gentle Knight illustrates how a rich fantasy life both helps and hinders children trying to cope with loss, loneliness, and growing up.While elder sister Roz is growing up and out of the desire for fantasy games, eldest brother Sebastian, who fancies himself Sir Lancelot in their Round Table game, continues to need it as much as ever, creating tension in the family and concern for Corrie, who worries that he may have lost his grip on reality. This tells the story of the 5 Bell children, each of them coping in various ways in the aftermath of their mother's death. Lightly rubbed on the corners of the dustjacket price intact aside from the author's inscription, no interior markings.
