LIFE IS TO SEEK by Diana Patrick

LIFE IS TO SEEK

By

Pub Date: Jan. 2nd, 1940
Publisher: Dutton

War in England today is the setting for the story of a tolerant and sage grandmother, and her spoiled granddaughter who comes to stay with her down in Cornwall while her husband is off doing his bit. The simple, benevolent ways of her grandmother, rebuild Carla's values, sated as they are with chiffon and champagne. Interwoven with Carla's story and of her brief infatuation with a youth of Cornwall, is the story of the road by which her grandmother reached her peace and security. Not a book for those allergic to sweetness and light; but ideal for those seeking just that.
