Mary Wesley presents an extraordinarily vivid and lively picture of wartime London: the rationing, imaginatively circumvented, the fallen houses, the parties, the new-found comforts of sex, the desperate humour of survival-all of it evoked with warmth, clarity and stunning wit. And through it all, the cousins and their friends try to hold on to the part of themselves that laughed and played dangerous games on that camomile lawn.
'Extraordinarily accomplished and fast-moving plotted with great deftness and intelligence'
