“This witty and humane novel from a grande dame of English letters takes place in Yorkshire in 1946. Hetty and Una — two teenage girls ‘cemented together by disappointment and woe’ — and their friend Lieselotte, a Jewish refugee, take advantage of the summer before university and venture out into the adult world. A sparkling, endearing account of first love, youthful folly and headstrong antics.”
