London: J M Dent & Sons, 1984. 1st U.K. Edition, Hardbound, 8vo (8.75 inches tall), 216 pages. "The story of a man who never knows he has a twin brother, yet whose life is governed by an inexplicable sense of loss. His twin daughters make him feel resentful, and mirrors make him feel peculiar. Set in small-town Ohio, from 1880 to the early 1950s, this is not so much a story about twins as a comment on the search of all of us for the perfect other self who will always love us and understand." Originally published in the U.S. in 1982, this is the first U.K. edition.
