'Witty, hilarious, astringent, devastating - her impeccable style can do anything and with seemingly effortless ease' Neel Mukherjee
Much to the disapproval of her friends, Kate Heron marries handsome, feckless Dermot, a man ten years her junior. When Charles, her old friend, visits with his his beautiful daughter, Kate watches happily as their two families are drawn together. Although she finds Charles' presence reassuringly familiar, slowly she becomes aware of subtle undercurrents that begin to disturb the calm surface of their friendship. Before long, even Kate cannot ignore the gathering storm . . .
'Elizabeth Taylor has an eye as sharply all-seeing as her prose is elegant - even the humdrum becomes astonishing when told in language that always aims for descriptive integrity, without a cliché in sight' Daily Telegraph
'When you've finished In a Summer Season, you are totally fired up to read every book that Taylor ever wrote' Val Hennessy, Daily Mail
Introduced by Elisabeth Russell Taylor
In a Summer Season is one of Elizabeth Taylor's finest novels in which, in a moving and powerful climax, she reveals love to be the thing it is: beautiful, often funny, and sometimes tragic.
'You taste of rain', he said, kissing her. 'People say I married her for her money', he thought contentedly, and for the moment was full of the self-respect that loving her had given him.
Kate Heron is a wealthy, charming widow who marries, much to the disapproval of friends and neighbours, a man ten years her junior: the attractive, feckless Dermot. Then comes the return of Kate's old friend Charles - intelligent, kind and now widowed, with his beautiful young daughter. Kate watches happily as their two families are drawn together, finding his presence reassuringly familiar, but slowly she becomes aware of subtle undercurrents that begin to disturb the calm surface of their friendship. Before long, even she cannot ignore the gathering storm . . .
