Richly evocative and transporting.Stacey Halls
A tender and lyrical evocation of the restorative power of nature and the garden. This beautiful book had notes of both Elizabeth von Arnim and Elizabeth Jane Howard. More please!Natasha Solomons
This touching, absorbing novel considers World War II from an unusual standpoint: the wives of shattered survivors returning home . . . A beautifully written story that will especially appeal to Rachel Hore fans. Daily Mail
A poignant drama . . . What happens when war ends? How do people move on after what they've seen and possibly done? Hardy explores these complex themes in this gentle but powerful novel. There'll be tears, but this evocative read is worth every one.Woman & Home - Book of the Month
