Summary

When newly-orphaned Cassandra Dashwood arrives as governess to little Sophy, the scene seems set for the archetypal romance between young girl and austere widowed employer. Cassandra is to discover that in real life tragedy, comedy and embarrassment are never far apart.

Palladian Summary

Palladian by Elizabeth Taylor

Palladian Reviews

A wonderful novelist * JILLY COOPER *
How skilfully and with what peculiar exhilaration she negotiated the minefield of the human heart * JONATHAN KEATES *
An eye as sharply all-seeing as her prose-style is elegant -- even the humdrum becomes astonishing * DAILY TELEGRAPH *
Brilliantly amusing * ROSAMOND LEHMANN *
