THE PAST TENSE OF LOVE

This is one of Elizabeth Cadell's romantic nothings which you can conjugate mindlessly and almost by heart. Kerry who is unlike the phlegmatic rest of her family (a sister; elderly aunts) is sent by an employer to France to deliver a book. . . to none other than the mother who had abandoned her years ago. Although a grande amoureuse in her day, she's now just a bewildered if not ""woolly witted"" woman about to be put out of her house and she had appealed for help to four of her previous lovers. One of them had a son which gives Kerry something else to think about. . . . That cucumber sandwich, sliced very thin.
