What is Grand Canyon about?
The Second World War has been won.

When the fragile peace eventually shatters, only Lester and Helen can take charge, and lead their fellow guests into an uncertain future.Filled with extraordinary characters and strange twists, Grand Canyon, written during World War Two, is Vita Sackville-West's unflinching exploration of what might be, and a warning of the dangers of compromise when world peace is at stake.
