Description
The Priory by Dorothy Whipple is set in a large house 'somewhere in England', partly modelled on Newstead Abbey near Nottingham and Parciau, the house on Anglesey. This atmospheric novel gently draws the reader into its world, where the grandeur of Saunby Priory stands alongside a more modern house, hiding secrets within its ancient stones. The story revolves around two young women, their father, a widower Major Marwood, and his new partner, whose arrival sets in motion a chain of events that will change their lives forever. With its well-crafted characters and straightforward yet engaging plot, this novel is a testament to Dorothy Whipple's skill as a writer. Published by Persephone Books, The Priory has been reprinted in 2012, offering readers the chance to experience this absorbing novel for themselves.
