Synopsis
Dr Cristian Luca has lived through it all. From power and influence to near destitution, from audiences at the Royal Palace to sleeping on building sites, from manipulating people to dependence on the kindness of hidden friends, from a successful and happy marriage to loneliness and regret, Luca is a survivor. But there is a continuing price to be paid.
The Voice of the Air gathers three episodes from Luca’s life. As he thinks back over his career, the people and tumultuous events he has been associated with, small tokens from this past allow him to step out of his daily concerns and observe what may really be going on – the secrets that lie behind the rapidly changing world in which he finds himself.
Now available together for the first time, “The Fatal Vision” and “The Lustre of Time” were previously only published in highly limited editions. “The Process of Fire” appears for the first time. While these novellas are loosely connected, each is also intended to stand as an independent story which can be read on its own.

The Voice of the Air
Seller: THE BOOKSNIFFER, Lewes, East Sussex, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: New. Limited Edition. When this welcome book by John Howard arrived from the publisher I nearly sent it back. The cover boards, front and back, were decidedly scruffy and damaged looking. BUT - I then took a closer look and realised this was all part of the cover design. it was actually a perfect copy. This edition is limited to 275 copies, and those copies quickly sold out. Three novellas, bound into a single volume that is, as I said, deliberately shabby looking. "Dr Cristian Luca has lived through it all. From power and influence to near destitution, from audiences at the Royal Palace to sleeping on building sites, from manipulating people to dependence on the kindness of hidden friends, from a successful and happy marriage to loneliness and regret, Luca is a survivor. But there is a continuing price to be paid. The Voice of the Air gathers three episodes from Luca's life. As he thinks back over his career, the people and tumultuous events he has been associated with, small tokens from this past allow him to step out of his daily concerns and observe what may really be going on - the secrets that lie behind the rapidly changing world in which he finds himself." LIMITED TO 275 copies. The publisher has not numbered the copies but that is the way of this highly original small press. A brilliant example of John Howard at his best.
