Only he never did. In the mean time grandfather Buddy’d died was buried in a cemetery with all the rest of the Washers and it’s there the circle finally closes with champagne and hard words at the grave side. </p><p>Steeped in the Stepwell catastrophes of love <em>West</em> interweaves the strands left hanging in the Quartet’s first two novels.
