Description
Blaming by Elizabeth Taylor is a nuanced exploration of responsibility, snobbery and culture clash. When Amy's life is turned upside down after her sudden widowhood, she finds comfort in Martha, an American traveller, who accompanies her back to England. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that they would not have been friends under normal circumstances. As guilt takes hold, Martha's presence becomes increasingly difficult for Amy to ignore. Taylor's writing offers piercing insight into the English middle classes, gently devastating them with its accuracy. This novel showcases the author's skill in crafting characters and stories that linger long after finishing the book.
