"The Wind and the Rain - A Book of Confessions" is a 1924 novel by
Thomas Burke. A charming tale of childhood and innocence, this volume is
not to be missed by fans and collectors of Burke's seminal work. Thomas
Burke (29 November 1886 - 22 September 1945) was a British writer most
famous for his "Limehouse Nights", a 1916 collection of stories based on
life in the poor London district of Limehouse. This volume will appeal
to all lovers of the short story form, and it is not to be missed by
fans and collectors of Burke's masterful work. Many vintage books such
as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this
in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable,
modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new
biography of the author.
