Lily book dedication But in my dream I heard her singing I knew she was near I lay contented on the grass wriggling my toes waiting for her return And in my dream I gained the landing and made a pillow my throne sitting as the child in the nursery rhyme adamant I would not be frightened from my perch I traced an embroidered initial with my forefinger A twisted letter curled at the corner in a hangman s noose Lily is possessed of exceedingly lovely prose But Lily is far than an exercise in good writing It is a captivating story with many layers complex characters and a setting Little Deeping Westshire that lives and breathes The past stalks the present while generations of ancestor portraits people the very walls of Stardene watching and waiting Waiting for the manor inhabited for decades by the Nevilles and recently by the Schapanskys to resolve its dark minor chords. Lilya and the shadows of war Perhaps it was the hourly deliberate chime of the grandfather clock in the hall that struck a steady dialogue through the passage of events Like an old father who gave out wise advice its tolling punctuated every action every conversation in the house bringing us and all who inhabited those ancient rooms to heel It would still querulousness with a gentle reminder that idle words and idle tongues breed ill The clock continues with us but its message is somehow changed There is a lingering in its chime a faltering as an old man with a bad heart Now and then it stirs and groans Lily is a generational story It is about a special mother and a special daughter It is about generations of Nevilles and the halls imbued with their customs It is about a May December marriage It is a Battle of heirs to the Neville fortune It is a story of terror madness music and mystery Eccentric English neighbors come to tea Continental musicians come to play Mozart and retired but not retiring jurists try to prosecute a case extrajudicially The plot twists and turns and the ending will have the reader inhaling sharply hanging on the tenterhooks of Hamilton s words such that even the characters are surprised Not the sort of book I would usually read but I am so glad I did Had I not I would have missed the picturesque river to Stardene.
