Description
SYNOPSIS: "Covers four generations of astonishing and sometimes eccentric women in an upper-class English family. Story starts in 1910 on the Northumberland moors. Violet Hesketh, corn into a world of nannies, croquet on the lawn, and a steady stream of visiting titled relatives. But when Violet is ten, her father is killed in World War I, and the rest of her childhood is spent on an Irish island with her glamorous but irresponsible mother and a chaotic household filled with enchanting but odd guests. World War II changes her world and her daughter becomes a writer in the 1950s and the granddaughter is a flower child of the 1970s, a life similar to her great grandmother." - from Amzon
