About this listen

Anne and Edmund Cornhill have a happy marriage and a charming house. They are content, complete, absorbed in their private idyll. Arabella, who comes to stay one lazy summer, is rich, rootless and amoral - and, as they find out, beautiful and loving.

With her elegant prose the author traces the web of love and desire that entangles these three; but it is Arabella who finally loses out.

beautifully written and performed heartbreaker

Not my favorite from a favorite author only because it is so sad - about human foibles, frailties, inadequacies. But brilliant writing and detailed observation, as always, of place and character, and the narration is perfection. Howard is an oft overlooked talent. Everything she's written deserves listening!

Tedious story, but worth it to hear Eleanor Bron .

Love to hear Eleanor Bron ' s beautiful voice. The story is tedious and predictable., but I could listen to her reading the telephone directory.
