Beschreibung

The world wants her to become a useful wife; Katharine wants to show the world how small it really is.

Katharine Hilbery is the gifted daughter of a distinguished literary family. While her mother writes a book about Victorian poetry, Katharine is looking to the stars. Dreaming of astronomy, Katharine finds herself involved with young new friends, working-class editor Ralph and suffragette Mary, whose alternative lives allow her to challenge her own.

Grappling with perennial issues of love versus freedom, Night and Day paints an unforgettable picture of the London intelligentsia before the First World War, with psychological insight, compassion and humour.

WITH INTRODUCTIONS BY ANGELICA GARNETT AND JO SHAPCOTT
