Description
This novel by Rosemary Tonks tells the story of Sophie's escape from polite society and her journey to self-discovery. After a particularly callous remark from her lover, Sophie knows she must break away from her mother, Philip, and the snobbery of her upbringing.
Being good and agreeable has brought Sophie nothing but loneliness; setting out alone might finally bring her satisfaction. With its bubbly, empathetic and ultimately lovely tone, this novel is a thrilling exploration of one woman's quest for independence.
Written by an extraordinary and little-known writer, The Halt During the Chase is a piece of dynamite that has been back in print after many decades. a worthwhile read for anyone interested in coming-of-age stories and feminist literature, this novel is not to be missed.
