From the Bookshelf of Tyler Public Library…

[close] Mothering Sunday starts off at a leisurely pace, but this character-driven novella is well worth the effort. Jane Fairchild, an accomplished author in her eighties, recollects a perfect and beautiful spring day in 1924, when she was a young maid meeting her secret paramour. Few books capture the essence of the world in 1924 so perfectly. Swift pens "the very feel of being alive". Highly recommended for the beautiful prose.
