Angels in the Architecture by Sarah Francis

Angels in the Architecture by Sarah Francis

When Herb and Primrose meet on the 3.40 to London, Waterloo, it only takes minutes to realise they share a dream. A ringpull on her finger and a couple of days later, they are married and on their way to Martha's Vineyard where Herb's late mother owned a beachhouse, and within weeks Primrose is pregnant and life is fat with expectation. To the crashing of waves on the beach and dishes on the floor, Agatha is born, and their world, if a little noisy, seems perfect. Typewriters on the deck, guitars on the beach, pies on the stove and angels all around. Who could want for more And then one day Herb spots a figure on the cliffs, and the dream of this salt-washed, sand-shifting idyll, slowly begins to crumble. ANGELS IN THE ARCHITECTURE is the story of a family unstuck, pieced together only by dreams and denials, and doomed from the very start. It is the tale of loves forgotten and passions indulged, but always at the edges of their despair are the glimmers of hope which keep them going, the invisible angels that will save them.
