Review:
Wonderful. Lively is brilliant and original . . . Every page of this book captures your attention * Daily Mail * Remarkable, richly enjoyable ... a captivating memoir -- Helen Dunmore * The Times * Engaging, curious, compelling, remarkable ... Any time spent with Penelope Lively is a joy * Observer * An ingenious memoir. The enchantment lies in its personal narrative: the portrait of a family and its progress through the twentieth century * Literary Review *
