By the author of Black Narcissus and The River 'Godden was a writer
who constantly drew on her own life experiences' ROSIE THOMAS,
GUARDIAN 'Her prose is pure, delicate, and gently witty' NEW YORK
TIMES 'It has the rare illusive charm, the flashes of wit' KIRKUS
REVIEWS Tracy Quinn, daughter of a screen star and raised on film
sets around the world, returns to her adored family home, a country
house named China Court. Her grandmother's recent death has set in
motion events that threaten Tracy's future and the very existence
of China Court. As Tracy fights to save the old house, inhabited by
five generations of Quinns, the ancestors who created it are
evoked: profligate, faithless Jared; Eliza, the embittered
spinster; and Ripsie, an outcast orphan who rose to become the
powerful matriarch. China Court is the story of the hours and days
of a country house in Cornwall and five generations of the family
who inhabited it.
