The Circling Song

Private Lawrence sees the world differently from those around him. Unfortunately those around him are the British Army. To Dr. Pennyworth Private Henry Lawrence appears to be just another wounded soldier but slowly he begins to realise that Lawrence experiences the world in a unique and inexplicable manner. From the chaos of The Great War Lawrence begins to create order. And Physics is struggling to keep up. Pennyworth and Dr. Caroline Charteris a Cambridge mathematician widowed by the war work together to unlock the mysterious mind of Henry Lawrence and to determine how he intends to use it. Then they must decide whether to assist him or stop him. The story of Henry Lawrence is told here through the correspondence private papers and published works of those who knew him.
