But, ever afterwards, just remembering the smell of the Lancing's house would enrapture her, taking her back to that very first day when Lucy and Gerald had picked her up from the station . . .All the longing, excitement and poignant comedy of adolescence is captured in Elizabeth Jane Howard's first novel about a young girl growing up in the years surrounding the First World War.'Interesting and original . . . Howard has true imagination and a kind of sensuous power.
