Delightful

A delightful book beautifully written, full of humour and well read. It pokes fun at Edwardian gentility and conventions. Through its graphic descriptions you can just feel the lazy heat of afternoons in the Italian sun and the warmth of an English summer playing tennis or splashing about in the water. A definite winner.

If you like Jane Austen you'll like this too.

The book is not really about much, that is, not much happens as such. What makes it so absorbing is what is said and thought by the characters, and furthermore the way in which they say it. In the same way Jane Austen gives us a window into the manners of a Regency period E M Foster gives us a window into the manners of the Edwardian period in a 'Room with a View'. But all that said it's just a boy meets girl love story in the end. I think Wanda McCaddon delivers a good reading and plays the characters well.
