Set in the late 1960s and 1970s, "The Dark-Eyed Girls" tells the story of three friends, Liv, Katherine and Rachel, and their changing relationships over the years. Liv, the book's central character, is romantic and looking for love. Katherine is envious of others' good fortune, hungry for experience and determined to avoid the domesticity that has, in her eyes, enslaved her mother.

A pleasant read,

This review is from: The Dark-Eyed Girls (Paperback)
Three young girls grow up together in a small English village and keep in touch as they grow older, even though their life paths veer in very different directions. Sweet, gentle Liv marries what she sees as the man of her dreams, only to find herself locked into a dark, possessive relationship. Katherine had always sworn off marriage and domesticity after seeing the soul crushed out of her mother by the demands of husband and family and Rachel who marries young and against her father's wishes. The story of their young lives and how they interconnect is a nice little read (which sounds as if I'm damning it with faint praise), not earth shattering but pleasant.
