Sobre este livro

On a rainy February day in London, two women who barely know each other, the shy Lotty Wilkins and the unhappy, devout Rose Arbuthnot, see the same advertisement: a small medieval castle on the Italian coast is for rent for the month of April. Too poor to afford it alone, they take in two other strangers, a beautiful society lady weary of admirers and an elderly widow who lives among memories of famous men.

Contexto e importância

What happens to the four women among the wisteria and the sunshine is the whole delightful story. Elizabeth von Arnim (1866–1941), born in Australia and a cousin of Katherine Mansfield, wrote it in 1922 after her own holiday in Portofino, and it became a bestseller and later a much-loved film. It is pure comfort reading, wise as well as funny.
