Book Description:
Something in Disguise follows a family coping with change and the relationships driving it apart from the author of the Cazalet Chronicles.
From the Back Cover:
May's second marriage to Colonel Herbert Browne-Lacey is turning out to be a terrible mistake. Her son, Oliver, leaves home only to drift from one affair to another; his sister Elizabeth follows him, yearning for some kind of secure relationship. While even Alice, the colonel's meek daughter, is driven into marriage to escape her father's sinister behaviour . . .
At once a candid depiction of a post-war family on the cusp of change and a touching love story, Something in Disguise embodies the startling truth, wit and daring that Elizabeth Jane Howard is renowned for.
'Has all Elizabeth Jane Howard's particularly feminine perception . . . yet what lingers in the mind is its delicious funniness' Guardian
'The book is astute, experienced, vulnerable, and it reads with incomparable ease' Kirkus Reviews
