Part of the Virago Modern Classics series
Paperback / softback
Description
At the beginning of June the river floods, ducks swim through the drawing-room windows and Ebin Willowd rows his daughters round the submerged garden.
The grandmother dresses in magenta for her seventy-first birthday whist drive and looks forward to the first prize of pate de fois gras.
Later Ives the gardener leads a morose procession up river, dragging her to a funeral in a black-draped punt.
The miller goes mad and drowns himself and a cottage is set alight.
Villagers keep dying and at the house on a river, plates are thrown across the luncheon table and a tortoise through a window.
The newspaper asks 'Who will be smitten by the fatal madness next?'
