In 1914, when Nicandra is eight, all is well in the grand Irish
estate of Deer Forest. Maman is beautiful and adored. Dada, silent
and small, mooches contendedly around the stables. Aunt Tossie, of
the giant heart and bosom, is widowed but looks splendid in weeds.
The butler, the groom, the landsteward, the maids, the men--each
has a place and knows it. Then, astonishingly, the perfect surface
is shattered: Maman does something too dreadful ever to be spoken
of. "What next? Who to love?" asks Nicaranda. And through her
growing up and marriage her answer is to swamp those around her
with kindness--while gradually the great house crumbles under a
weight of manners and misunderstanding.
