Description
Susanna Weber's dress shop stands in the picturesque Madensky Square, a quiet little world of its own, nestled in the heart of glittering pre-war Vienna. Here, Susanna records her observations about life in the Square, noting the colourful inhabitants and their stories.
As she writes, Susanna reveals the passions and tragedies behind daily life, including the heartbreak that lies beneath her brisk kindness and brilliant talent. Her journal entries bring to life a magical world of characters, each with their own unique story to tell.
Eva Ibbotson's Madensky Square remains an enchanting tale today as it was on first publication, offering a glimpse into the lives of those living in this charming Vienna square during the early 20th century.
