Summary

Miles Burrows is a man always in love, and confused as lovers have to be by the inconstant nature of ‘the other’. With Waiting for the Nightingale, he expresses social class anxiety, nostalgia and the competing glamour of women and metaphysics. Burrows is also aware of mortality, Eros and Thanatos tap constantly at his funny bone. Does God exist? Will the nightingale sing?
