by Angela Thirkell ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
The charm of nicety of her individual style, her likeable characters, her elegant light touch have won her quite an audience, and they won't be disappointed in this latest. With charm, wisdom and kindly humor, Mrs. Thirkell tells of a house-part and the result in the mixture of guests. Young Alice is cured of her shyness; Foster finds a worthy wife, a lady author is put in her place, a rebellious daughter lands on her feet, and so on. Rather refreshing entertainment, though slight.
