Edgewood Rectory is set in an ancient landscape, but the Grantly family are very much of their time. In the uncertain world that has emerged since the outbreak of peace, the Rector and his wife are bewildered by the challenges facing their eldest children: Eleanor, longing for more excitement than can be found in the Red Cross Library; and Tom, struggling to readjust to student life at Oxford after his military service.

'Charming, very funny indeed. Angela Thirkell is perhaps the most Pym-like of any twentieth-century author, after Pym herself' Alexander McCall Smith
