In this delightful and witty novel, Laura Willowes rebels against
pressure to be the perfect 'maiden aunt'. Not interested in men or
the rushed life of London, Laura is forced to move there from her
beloved countryside after the death of her father. Her relatives
like dead things; they treasure stuffed animals and parade possible
husbands ('suitable and likely undertakers', as Laura calls them)
in front of Miss Willowes. Finally, Laura strikes out for the
countryside on her own, selling her soul to an affable but rather
simple-minded devil, and becomes a witch. First written in the
1920s, this book is timely and entertaining. It was the first
selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club in 1926.
