It takes the pageant celebrating the church's fourth centenary and an unpardonable death to remind Clare, who had almost forgotten, that the world is a very uncertain place.'Beautiful and brillliant' Auberon Waugh'I find Penelope Lively almost excessively gifted . . . the most enjoyable novel I have read for a very long time indeed' The TimesPenelope Lively is the author of many prize-winning novels and short-story collections for both adults and children.
