This splendid collection of stories, spanning years and generations of husbands and wives, fathers and sons, brothers and sisters, provides further proof of Phyllis Bentley s special gift for storytelling. Displaying her mastery of the narrative style, each of the nine separate stories is unified by her treatment of the complexities of familly relationships. Many are set in the West Riding of Yorkshire, the country with which the author has indelibly identified herself.
