Elizabeth and Betsy had been school friends in 1950s London.
Elizabeth, prudent and introspective, values social propriety.
Betsy, raised by a spinster aunt, is open, trusting, and desperate
for affection. After growing up and going their separate ways, the
two women reconnect later in life. Elizabeth has married kind but
tedious Digby, while Betsy is still searching for love and
belonging. In this deeply perceptive story, Anita Brookner
brilliantly charts the resilience of a friendship tested by
alienation and by jealousy over a man who seems to offer the
promise of escape.
