      * Set during the Edwardian era, this is a poignant and beautifully told story of family love and family feuds, and of musical and artistic aspirations. * Introduction by Rebecca West's biographer, Victoria Glendinning.

      Rose Aubrey is one of a family of four children. Their father, Piers, is the disgraced son of an Irish landowning family, a violent, noble and quite unscrupulous leader of popular causes. His Scottish wife, Clare, is an artist, a tower of strength, fanatically devoted to a musical future for her daughters.

      This is the story of their life in south London, a life threatened by Piers''s streak of tragic folly which keeps them on the verge of financial ruin and social disgrace . . .
