Item description from seller

Presentation copy from the author, signed to first endpaper and dated September 23rd 1958. First Edition. Publisher’s black cloth, spine lettered in yellow.

Arnot Robertson (1903-1961) wrote eight novels. Combining wit with a talent for storytelling and a realistic romantic eye, she was one of the most popular English novelists of the 1930s and 40s.

Probably her best-known work is Ordinary Families, first published in 1933 (reissued by Virago), a classic portrayal of English family life, sibling rivalry, and ‘the complexities of betrayal that lie beneath the surface of a health boating family’ [Oxford Companion to 20th Century Literature in English, p.575].…
