Chosen for Birmingham Feminist Book Club's June read.
Blurb:
Judith Earle, over-earnest and inexperienced, has always been a little in love with each of the four cousins who come to stay next door and, on her return from Cambridge, falls madly in love with one of them - Roddy, the "sensation-hunter". Dusty Answer traces with delicate nostalgia childhood friendships and the pangs of thwarted young love.
My review:
The writing's beautiful, but I found it very hard to care about any of these smug, idle, pointless people.
