Friends And Relations
Elizabeth Bowen
ISBN: 9780099287759
(PB - E)
€
Two sisters, two weddings, just months apart. These marriages produce a tangle of friends, relations and lovers that starts to unravel ten years later, during one intense week. Two of BowenÆs most memorable characters are in attendance: Lady Elfrida, a creature of privilege, and Theodora Thirdman, a gawky teenager with zero self-awareness. The sunset of prosperity is upon this complacent, moneyed class, but BowenÆs precise and beautiful prose pins real pain and comedy upon its inhabitants.
