The year is 1920. Clara Batchelor, the heroine of The Lost
Traveller, is now an actress with a touring repertory company and
is passionately in love with the wholly unsuitable Stephen Tye.
When Stephen betrays her, Clara betrays herself by agreeing to
marry Archie, the fiance' she discarded four years before. A
friendship but not a love match, the marriage is a desperate
attempt by Clara to rekindle the safety of childhood. But neither
of them are children any more and their dream sugar house begins to
dissolve. The Sugar House is the second in the trilogy sequel to
Frost in May, which began with The Lost Traveller and continues in
Beyond the Glass. Although each is a complete novel in itself,
together they form a brilliant portrait of a young girl's journey
to adulthood.
