Detailed Product Description
UK, 2001. 261 pp. That Summer was the fourth novel by Scottish climbing writer Andrew Greig. It was retitled The Clouds Above: A Novel of Love and War for the U.S. market. The storyline partly inspired the song Oxford Street in the Blackout: The Automatic Eye 2006) by Scottish songwriter David Heavenor.

It is June 1940. Working class Len Westbourne, an inexperienced fighter pilot, falls in love with Stella Gardam, a more worldly radaroperator. Stella's friend Maddy is killed in a bombing raid and Len's squadron colleague, Polish pilot Tad, dies in a flying accident.

Told in alternate chapters from the perspectives of Len and Stella, That Summer is a love story told against the background of the Battle of Britain. Len is injured when his Hawker Hurricane crashes and goes off to recuperate with Stella in the countryside. Fine-New paperback
