An excellent house. A family group dispossessed. A hypersensitive young man. A powerful landowner. An epic love that springs up between two men. Occur the post-Napoleonic years of the 1820s, Standish is an account of two men - one finding his sexuality and the other struggling to triumph over his traumatic history. Ambrose Standish, a studious and delicate son, has dreams of regaining the fantastic house his grandfather lost in a greeting card game. When Rafe Goshawk profits from the continent to declare the property, their meeting models them on the avenue of desire and betrayal that threatens to tear both of their worlds apart. Painting a picture of homosexuality in Georgian Great britain, Standish is a love history of the way the decisions of two men have an impact on their journeys through Europe and through life.
