The Company of Heaven by Catherine Fox
Return to Lindchester once more with The Company of Heaven, the fifth in the beloved series of Lindchester Chronicles novels by Catherine Fox. Entertaining and packed with well-loved characters, The Company of Heaven is perfect for fans of Anthony Trollope's Barchester Chronicles, Barbara Pym and BBC's Rev.
'Wise and funny. . Catherine Fox knows that daily life is never trivial. Her characters' big experiences take place in the ordinary world of Covid, cake and kindness, but - like our own - they are no less significant for that.' -- Gillian Cross, winner of the Carnegie Medal and the Whitbread Children’s Book Award on THE COMPANY OF HEAVEN
'By innovatively laying her characters onto real-time month by month events, Catherine Fox reminds us of the vital narratives of our own lives, and asks us to pay attention to the human stories that pulse beneath the headlines.' -- Andrew McMillan, poet and Professor of Contemporary Writing, Manchester Writing School on THE COMPANY OF HEAVEN
'Catherine Fox's glorious Lindchester series is the twenty-first-century answer to Trollope's Barchester - but Trollope was never so funny, so fundamentally kind or so mischievously attentive to grace.' -- Francis Spufford, author of Golden Hill and Light Perpetual on THE LINDCHESTER CHRONICLES
'Unsure what to buy the Trollope devotee in your life for Christmas? Look no further than Catherine Fox . . . for a set of profound, although lightly drawn, insights into the Anglican communion.' -- Janet Beer, The Times Higher Education on THE LINDCHESTER CHRONICLES
'These books are utterly unputdownable, gossipy, subtle and wise . . . Catherine Fox . . . makes you believe . . . that most people aspire to goodness even if they fall flat on their faces.' -- Maggie Gee, novelist & Professor of Creative Writing, Bath Spa University on THE LINDCHESTER CHRONICLES
