High Rising

Barsetshire Series

In High Rising, Mrs. Morland, a widowed author, must attend to the deeper problems of country life while her son Tony drives everyone to distraction with his amazing combination of toy trains. Here Mrs. Thirkell demonstrates the characteristic style for which she is known and for which readers love her. This is fiction replete with gentle irony, grave absurdity, and urbane understatement.Writes the Chicago Sun of Mrs. Thirkell's writing, 'You read her, relaxed and smiling, from the first word to the last.'
