I bought this book to replace my copy which had inadvertently gone to the charity shop. I love it. For those of us who want to bathe in the nostalgia of a long-gone way of life, this is a great book, set in Ireland and about an Anglo-Irish family for whom appearance is all and sex education is non existent. It was made into a tv series in the 80s and I loved that too, the acting was wonderful and I can't understand why there isn't a cd.

I hadn't read any Molly Keane previously, but can understand why she is held in such high regard. Reminded me of The Great Gatsby.
