Happy Returns,
By
This review is from: Happy Returns (Angela Thirkell Barsetshire Series) (Paperback)
In the many-volume Bartshetshire saga, Angela Thirkel takes us into a way of life which has disappeared from the earth. As World War II approaches, exists and slowly leaves center stage, the county copes and attempts to retain the best of the old days. It sends its children off to war and welcomes them back, changed. The motto of Bartshetshire might well be "We Presist" as elders, by steadfast example, communicate their standards of duty and breeding to the children irristably forced into a new world. I'm sure that these novels are escapism, pure and simple; but, like the tales of Elfland, one is the better for one's journey. |
