  • "La sombre et fantastique histoire d'un aristocrate dont l'héritage est contesté, le destin tragique d'un vieil organiste alccolique, d'un architecte naïf et d'une belle jeune fille, dans une petite ville de la province anglaise où l'on restaure une très ancienne église, siège du mystérieux blason de la famille Blandamer."
  • "First published in 1903, John Meade Falkner's The Nebuly Coat has drawn praise from writers as diverse as Thomas Hardy, Graham Greene, E.M. Forster, John Betjeman, Henry Newboldt, and A.N. Wilson; while Lady Violet Bonham Carter, visiting a munitions works in 1915, fell into conversation with one of the directors, with whom she began discussing books. She told him that there was one book that he must read; 'I cannot tell you why, because its quality is indescribable-it is called The Nebuly Coat.' 'I wrote it, ' replied the director.>"@en
  • ""The Nebuly Coat (1903), by J. Meade Falkner, is a novel which tells of the experiences of a young architect, Edward Westray, who is sent to the remote Dorset town of Cullerne to supervise restoration work on Cullerne Minster. He finds himself caught up in Cullerne life, and hears rumours about a mystery surrounding the claim to the title of Lord Blandamer, whose coat of arms in the Minster's great transept window is the nebuly coat of the title. When the new Lord Blandamer arrives, promising to pay all the costs of the restoration, Westray suspects that the new lord is not what he seems." -- from Wikipedia entry (accessed June 20, 2013)."@en
