'Just the right mixture of doomed fun, melancholy and faintly lascivious
despair' Observer
'I am afraid I have something to tell you. It is that we are all about to be
destroyed.'
1914. The old standards are going. There is bitterness in politics, talk of
civil war in Ireland.
But all this means little to Cynthia Weston, attractive wife of cabinet member
Aylmer Weston, and her nephew by marriage Philip. They are caught up in the
charmed, perilous toils of a mutual passion that will destroy all they hold most
dear - while the shadow of war lengthens and darkens, ready to swallow their
world whole.
A captivating portrait of a lost world, Statues in a Garden is a rediscovered
masterpiece by one of the most important and neglected British female writers of
the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
