About this product

Product Information

Artist's daughter Penelope Keeling can look back on a full and varied life: a Bohemian childhood in London and Cornwall, an unhappy wartime marriage, and the one man she truly loved. She has brought up three children - and learned to accept them as they are. Yet she is far too energetic and independent to settle sweetly into pensioned-off old-age. And when she discovers that her most treasured possession, her father's painting, The Shell Seekers, is now worth a small fortune, it is Penelope who must make the decisions that will determine whether her family can continue to survive as a family, or be split apart.

      A perfect Desert Island Disc book choice!

      This would be my Desert island Disc book choice. I absolutely love Rosamund Pilcher. A light read and sheer escapism with a healthy dose of realism and floored characters I can easily relate to and feel I know personally by the last chapter. Pilcher beautifully weaves the complexities of her character's lives with unaffected honesty and sincerity. I always feel bereft when I finish the last page of this bookj. Highly recommend.

    • Excellent

      Brilliant story, one of the best books I have ever read and I have read loads, it was so entertaining that each time I put it down couldn't wait to pick it up again to see what was happening next. Great read.

    • Excellent fantastic book,the genius writing of Rosamund Pilcher

      The genius writing of Rosamund Pilcher, slowly draws you in with each character. For me I found the book held my attention, made me laugh cry and engage. I highly recommend this excellent read.

    • Lovely film .

      A lovely film, I had just read the book and was a little disappointed at the changes to the story but if you haven't read the book it is a lovely film in its own rights!
