The old world begins to fade from view and a new dawn emerges in the fifth novel in Elizabeth Jane Howard's beloved and bestselling Cazalet Chronicles.
It is the 1950s and as the Duchy, the Cazalets’ beloved matriarch, dies, she takes with her the last remnants of a disappearing world—of houses with servants, of class and tradition—in which the Cazalets have thrived.
Louise, now divorced, becomes entangled in a painful affair, while Polly and Clary must balance marriage and motherhood with their own ideas and ambitions. Hugh and Edward, now in their sixties, feel ill-equipped for this changing world, while Villy, long abandoned by her husband, must at last learn to live independently. But it is Rachel, who has always lived for others, who will face her greatest challenges yet.
As a new generation of Cazalets descend on Home Place, only one thing is certain: nothing will ever be the same again.
Genre: Historical
