Description
Milton Place is a novel about a large house in the country in the early 1950s. A young woman named Anita, who had lived in Austria throughout the war years, comes to stay with an elderly man named Mr Barlow. They form a companionship that is much to the dismay of his two daughters. As Anita settles into her new life, she forms relationships with both Mr Barlow and his grandson Tony. The book explores these relationships, as well as the survival of the English country house, and the challenges facing England after the war. The novel's themes are complex and multifaceted, making it a thought-provoking read for those interested in literature, history, and character-driven fiction.
