At Rushwater House in West Barsetshire, Lady Emily Leslie and her family are entertaining an assortment of houseguests, hangers-on, and French monarchists. Amidst a welter of rapturous embraces and moonlight madness, a marriage is finally arranged, as well as the glittering summer party that provides the setting for this novel's hilarious climax. With a refreshing mix of satire and comedy, Wild Strawberries brilliantly captures the many nonsensical intrigues of both young and old.

Work Description
Twenty three year old Mary Preston goes to visit her relations at Rushwater and meets two men - charming, irresponsible, infuriating David and dependable John. The story of which one she ends up with is told against a backdrop of Lady Emily (maddeningly absent-minded) Martin (seventeen and well-intentioned), Agnes (dim but sweet) and the rest of the family, as only Thirkell can.
