4.0 out of 5 stars
An evocative voice from the sixties,
By "nicola_webb" (Tokyo) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Summer Bird-cage (Mass Market Paperback)
Sarah had come home from Paris to be a bridesmaid for her sister Louise. When they were young Sarah adored her sister, but her sister never seemed to be the least bit interested in her. The novel traces a year in their lives through Sarah's eyes. It is a book about growing up, learning about different kinds of people and most of all its about the institution of marriage as viewed by Sarah through Louise's marriage.Although this book has been around for 40 years it is still fresh and relevant today. People have always hidden who they are and what their true motives are. I have never read a Margaret Drabble book before, but I will definitely read more in future. I love her prose and her acute observations of people. Well worth a read! |
