About this product

Product Information

Five cousins gather on their aunt's camomile lawn and talk about the coming war. It is the last summer of their youth. Over the next few years they remain united by shared losses and loves, family ties and the absurd conditions imposed by the war. Through it all, they try to hang onto the part of themselves that laughed and played games on that camomile lawn.

  • Enthralling and entertaining

    As the first of Mary Wesley's novels this one sets the tone for all the ones following, by introducing characters that appear again in later books. The story is a very good read about a middle class family and each person has a well-defined personality. By the end of the book you feel you knw these people intimately and want to know more about what happens to them. Definitely recommended.

  • rather bland

    Virtually new condition. Hardback. Fascinating story with brilliant characterisation but with so many flashbacks and forwards most readers may have to persevere for several chapters before they really get what the book is about, After that It's a page-turner.
