Description

January has been bitterly cold in Thrush Green. But at last, the winter seems to be melting into a beautiful spring. But with the warmer weather comes a series of local dramas in the community: the future of The Fuchsia Bush Tea-Room is uncertain when its owner, Mrs Peters, falls ill; there are problems concerning Rectory Cottages, which prove hard to solve; the plans for the village fete - always an event rife with conflict - are hotting up... Meanwhile, the arrival of a stranger from America excites much interest and curiosity - who is he and what effect will he have on the village?

Author Biography:

Miss Read, or in real life Dora Saint, was born 17 April 1913. A teacher by profession, she started writing after the Second World War for Punch and other journals and as a scriptwriter for the BBC. She is the author of many immensely popular books, including two autobiographical works, but it is for her novels of English rural life for which she is best known. The first of these, Village School, was published in 1955 and Miss Read continued to write about the fictitious villages of Fairacre and Thrush Green until her retirement in 1996. She lives in Berkshire, and in the 1998 New Year Honours list was awarded an MBE for her services to literature.
