"Funny and moving."-The New York Times
In prose vibrant and witty, The Queen of the Tambourine traces
the emotional breakdown-and eventual restoration-of Eliza Peabody,
a smart and wildly imaginative woman who has become unbearably
isolated in her prosperous London neighborhood. Eliza must reach
the depths of her downward spiral before she can once again find
health and serenity. This story of a woman's confrontation with the
realities of sanity will delight readers who enjoy the works of
Anita Brookner, Sybille Bedford, Muriel Spark, and Sylvia Plath.
Winner of the Whitbread Prize for Best Novel of the Year.
