In the Time of Greenbloom is a psychological coming-of-age story set in rural England in the 1920s. John Blaydon, barely thirteen when the story opens, feels unlike his peers and disconnected from the rest of his generation. When his one dear childhood friend dies tragically, John creates his own emotional prison, and becomes suicidal. Horab Greenbloom, an immensely wealthy Oxford student forces John to face himself and come to terms with his past.
