2 44 y separately published work icon Clean Straw for Nothing : A Novel George Johnston , ( trans. Zofia Zinserling with title Przespisz sine za darmo ) Warsaw : Czytelnik , 1973 Z825043 1969 single work novel

'Set against the backdrop of a Greek island, Clean Straw for Nothing follows the story of successful war correspondent and retired journalist David Meredith as he abandons his career for a life in exile with his beautiful wife Cressida. Johnston focuses on the developing relationship between David and Cressida, exploring the complex and reflective character of David as he questions the nature of success, sexual tensions, expatriation and ill-health. The questions are almost entirely unanswerable and the freedom David craves nearly impossible.'
