'The ghost of Katherine Mansfield hovers lightly over these
deceptively delicate snapshots' Metro A beguiling collection of
short stories from award-winning author of Free Love, The Past and
Late in the Day, Tessa Hadley. Lottie announces at the breakfast
table that she is getting married. The youngest daughter of a large
and close-knit family, Lottie is nineteen but looks five years
younger. Her fiance is Edgar Lennox, a composer of religious music
and lecturer at Lottie's university, forty-five years her senior.It
is a story of romantic dreams and daily reality, family loyalties
tested but holding, and the comedy and solace to be found in small
moments. Evoking a world that expands beyond the pages, it marks
the beginning of what is an astonishing collection to treasure.
'The most perceptive chronicler since George Eliot of avid,
unworldly young women' Guardian
