About this book
In this charming midsummer comedy from Angela Thirkell's classic 1930's Barsetshire series, Oxford student Richard Tebben is won over by the spirited Dean family. It is August in the Barsetshire village of Worsted, and Richard Tebben, just down from Oxford, is considering the miserable outlook of a long summer in the parental home. But the glamorous Dean family-exquisite Rachel, her accomplished husband, and six of their nine bright children-have come for the holidays, and their hostess Mrs. Palmer plans to get everyone into performing in her disastrous annual Greek play. Encircled by the likable, irrepressible Deans, Richard and his sister Margaret cannot help but have their minds opened, their emotional state raised, and hearts taken.
