Book Synopsis
Home To An Empty House tells in Alun Richards' incisive style the story of a marriage that has long since lost its sparkle. Walter, the wisecracking paranoiac and Connie, teacher of the 'backward class', are a couple who know a lot about sex but little about each other.

Trade Review
"The success of this landmark series has been phenomenal - in terms of sales, public and media interest and the sheer quality of the books. These achievements are testimony to the growth and development of English-language publishing in Wales, as backed by the Welsh Books Council with the support of the Welsh Assembly Governemnt. The Library of Wales series is an intrinsic part of the current resurgence of Welsh writing in English. After years of neglect, the future for Welsh writing in English - both classics and new writing - looks very promising indeed." --Professor M. Wynn Thomas, Chairman of the Welsh Books Council"A crackling and sizzling read... full of life... of character and vitality," --The Sunday Times"His people are real, rounded and running over with life... brilliance." --Daily Telegraph
