The Nonce
A gripping tale of a forbidden and passionate love affair.
Sean is an artist who has made it when he was just in his twenties and his work sells for huge sums of money on the international art market.
He has bought a beautiful country house in Kent with a couple of acres of land and is into self sufficiency and organic farming.
Sean has been lucky in life with success coming at an early age but is unlucky in love until he meets the nubile Rita in a local discotheque.
Rita falls in love with Sean at first sight and makes up her mind there and then to get him and when she visits his home she seduces him.
The feeling of love is mutual and all seems well until Sean sees her on a trip into town wearing a school uniform and discovers that she has lied to him about her age and in fact is not seventeen but fourteen!
The revelation comes as a shock to Sean who tries to give her up but finds that he is so much in love with her that he cannot end their passionate affair.
Soon the lovers are living together with the permission of Rita’s liberally minded parents, and all seems well until the authorities discover that they are engaged to be married and living together as man and wife.
Suddenly Sean’s beautiful magical world is blown to smithereens. He is prosecuted but refuses to plead guilty because he does not think that he has committed a crime.
In the political climate of the time 1985 in Thatcher’s Britain he is made an example of and sentenced to eighteen months in prison.
Read about the brutal, violent and degrading environment in the closed prison Bandsworth where he is first sent, the screws, the homosexuality, the drugs, corruption, endemic violence and how prisoners are made to behave by the offer of early parole and a move to an open prison.
Sean is labelled a “Nonce” the derogatory word for convicts who have been found guiltyof having sex with someone under the age of consent.Because of this he is attacked,,but is able to defend himself because he is fit, strong and an expert in martial arts.
In contrast to the violence read about the uninhibited ,passionate lovemaking between Sean and Rita a modern Romeo and Juliet
Read about Sean’s experiments with hallucinogenic fungi which he consumes to increase his aesthetic perceptions into reality, a la Salvador Dali, one of his idols, and to create works of art in different mindstates.
Read about the easy life and the kindness of the staff in an open prison Hayhill which is in total contrast to the horrible Badsworth where he is incarcerated at first.
Finally read about his passionate love of drawing and painting in creating his forte in the genre of erotic art.
I know that you will find this controversial book a fascinating read.
Yours Sincerely,
