I Can't Forget You

Derek Bailey is one of Britain's finest tenors. He never forgets Elspeth McPhail, the young Scottish house-keeper who worked for him when he was starting his career in the thirties. Although he becomes famous and successful, his personal life is far from fulfilling. This novel covers Derek's professional and personal life over a span of forty years including his two unsatisfactory marriages and his five-year affair with a young woman forty years his junior.
