- Book Synopsis
- Harriet, recently returned to an English village after a life spent with her widowed clergyman father in cities across Europe, where he has served in British embassies, quickly becomes involved in local life. She makes friends, including a scatty girl who is under her mother's thumb, attends all the classiest social events and attracts many admirers. Life for her seems to have settled down, but then a local feud involving her father, the village church where he is the vicar, and several parishioners leads the two to return to Europe and more official postings for her father and friendship and romance for Harriet. Then a traumatic event changes her life dramatically. Celia Andrews has based the novel on Plan of a Novel, a publication of notes left by Jane Austen by Oxford University Press in their book Minor Works.
- About The Author
- Celia was a journalist and spent many years on a variety of weekly and evening newspapers as a reporter, sub-editor and TV and theatre critic. She has published several novels and short story collections based loosely on her experiences as a journalist: Cinderella and the Three Wise Men; Accidents Waiting; Press Ganged; and The Watsons Revisited; which is her version of a Jane Austen unfinished work centred on three young women living with their father. She and her husband live in a Somerset Village and have a son and daughter and three grandchildren.
