The twelfth and final novel in the sequence of 'A dance to the music of time', a twelve-novel cycle. Powell's monumental series, inspired by Poussin's painting of the same name. The story is an often comic examination of movements and manners, power and passivity in English political, cultural and military life in the mid 20th century. "The words 'twelve-novel cycle' don't exactly inspire readerly zeal in most people, but once you catch the rhythm of Powell's dodecahedral masterpiece it's hard to put it down. Beginning in the 1920 s, A Dance to the Music of Time follows the lives of a group of English friends and acquaintances as they make their various ways through life: meeting and parting, succeeding and failing, loving and hating, living and dying. There is ample room for both comedy and tragedy in this capacious, large-hearted work, but Powell's real triumph is the way he catches the rhythm of fate itself, the way it brings people together, only to spin them apart, then reunite them later as near-strangers, transformed in unexpected ways by the intervening years." (Time 100). In this, the 12th and final volume of Powell's Dance to the Music of Time series, Powell and his narrator, Jenkins, bring their world through the 1960's and early 1970's to a conclusion in this extraordinary picture of English life in the Twentieth century.
