The ghost of a doomed romance haunts an Oxford undergraduate's idyllic summer affair; a tragedy of hopeless love and murderous frustration is played out against the backdrop of a provincial repertory company; passion and hatred flower side by side in suburban back gardens. Angela Huth peoples her stories with elderly ladies living out extraordinary fantasy lives and betrayed wives wreaking subtle revenge, drawing out their secret disappointments and their dreams of glamour. She brings to this exquisite collection all the wry delicacy, subversive wit and keen eye for the drama in the quietest of lives that characterise her acclaimed novels.
'Filled with the crackle of conflict and quietly crazed obsession ... Huth's controlled, elegant style has been compared to Jane Austen's but her talent is entirely original' Penny Parrick, THE TIMES
