Description
Casting Off by Elizabeth Jane Howard As peace is declared, the Cazalet family emerges from war-torn Britain, facing new challenges and opportunities. In this fourth instalment of the saga, the cousins in their twenties struggle to piece together their lives after the Second World War. Louise must come to terms with her father's new mistress and her mother's grief, while navigating a loveless marriage of her own. Clary grapples with why her beloved father chose to stay in France long after it was safe to return, and both she and Polly find themselves entangled in complicated relationships with older men. As the family members make choices that will determine their future, they must confront the harsh realities of the adult world. Elizabeth Jane Howard's masterful storytelling brings this poignant saga to a close.
