In this week’s episode we discuss Jocelyn Playfair’s A House in the Country. Written in 1944—when an Allied victory was still far from certain—the story is set at Brede Manor, a fine Georgian house that is hosting displaced wartime lodgers. The novel is a lovely elegy on the human experience and finding meaning in strange, dark times. In other words, highly relatable. For episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.com Follow us on instagram @lostladiesoflit. Follow Kim on twitter @kaskew.
