Begun in the 1950s and continued over four decades, Miss Reads wry chronicles of the small neighboring towns of Thrush Green and Fairacre in the Cotswolds district of England take readers to a bygone world of charming eccentrics and stalwart characters. When troubles arise they are handled with a combination of manners, old-fashioned pluck, and the occasional good-natured compromise.When Reverend Charles Henstocks house burns down, he moves to another parishone where he might not be welcomed with open armsin this seventh Thrush Green book, from 1983. Meanwhile, the fearsome Mrs. Thurgood and her daughter are determined to do good for the church, whether the help is wanted or not. Then the eligible Kit Armitage returns, and more than a few heads turn.
