Description
Mothering Sunday is a powerful and moving novel about the lives we lead and the parallel stories that unfold. Set on March 30th, 1924, it tells the story of Jane Fairchild, an orphan and housemaid who finds herself at a crossroads on Mothering Sunday. As she navigates this pivotal day, Jane's life is shaped by the events that will forever change her future. With its joyous sensuality and deeply moving narrative, Graham Swift's novel is a thrilling exploration of love, lust, and ordinary decency in an unjust world. A beautifully observed and exquisitely written story, Mothering Sunday has been praised for its mastery and resonance, with many considering it one of the author's best works.
