The Summer House by Alice Thomas Ellis
A work of astonishing illumination and delight . . . so edgy, bright and subversive about women's inner lives and experience.--Francine Prose, New York Times Book Review
The subtlety of James, the comedy of Spark, the penetrating--and the deep, unflinching--eye of Jane Austen.--Kirkus Reviews
*A New York Times Notable Book*
In The Summer House trilogy, three very different women, with three very distinct perspectives, narrate three very witty novels concerning one disastrous wedding in the offing.
The Clothes in the Wardrobe Nineteen-year-old Margaret feels more trepidation than joy at the prospect of her marriage to forty-year-old Syl.
The Skeleton in the Cupboard Syl's mother, Mrs. Monro, doesn't know quite what to make of her son's life, but she knows Margaret should not marry him.
The Fly in the Ointment And then there's Lili, the free spirit who is determined that the wedding shall not happen, no matter the consequences.
