About the book
If you are a student of seemingly minor social niceties and/or barbs you will thoroughly enjoy this tale of a woman who struggles to please her family, friends and neighbors while trying to ignore the signs of something bizarre happening. The play of the petty one-up-man-ship of the characters is superb and eminently believable in this depiction of an ordinary mother and wife living in England in the mid 1900s. The tension mounts slowly and remorselessly, culminating in a nerve-racking conclusion.
