Krátky popis
If she was to make a mark on the world, she would have to do so in
another way...'Bittersweet ... dazzling' Guardian'Deeply
pleasurable ... the ending made me cry' The Times'Told with a
wealth of detail and narrative intensity' Penelope LivelyIt is
1932, and the losses of the First World War are still keenly
felt.Violet Speedwell, mourning for both her fiance and her brother
and regarded by society as a 'surplus woman' unlikely to marry,
resolves to escape her suffocating mother and strike out alone.A
new life awaits her in Winchester.Yes, it is one of draughty
boarding-houses and sidelong glances at her naked ring finger from
younger colleagues, but it is also a life gleaming with
independence and opportunity. Violet falls in with the broderers, a
disparate group of women charged with embroidering kneelers for the
Cathedral, and is soon entwined in their lives and their secrets.
As the almost unthinkable threat of a second Great War appears on
the horizon Violet collects a few secrets of her own that could
just change everything...Warm, vivid and beautifully orchestrated,
A Single Thread reveals one of our finest modern writers at the
peak of her powers.
