A restless summer dusk settles over early 1900s England, where the boundaries of family and society are quietly tested by those too young to accept them unquestioningly. In the shadowed parlours and sunlit lanes, the uncertainties of youth clash with the unyielding convictions of an older generation, setting the stage for a psychological fiction that pulses with tension and empathy. At the heart of this British coming of age story lies a portrait of generational conflict: young hearts striving for selfhood, while parents and elders cling to their own hard-won certainties. The narrative unfolds with subtlety and grace, exploring not only the external social drama of English life, but the private, often unspoken moral dilemmas that shape both individual destinies and family relationships. This is a novel deeply attuned to the shifting undercurrents of the twentieth century, where rebellion is not always loud, but can be found in a glance, a silence, or a quietly defiant act. Its pages capture the psychological complexity of growing up in a world where tradition and change are locked in uneasy dialogue, making it a work of enduring relevance for readers drawn to nuanced explorations of youth and rebellion. The nuanced prose and truthful characterisation invite both general readers and collectors of English literature novels to experience a story that is as emotionally resonant today as it was on first publication. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure, offering a rare opportunity to rediscover a significant work of family relationships fiction from a pivotal era in English storytelling.
