A well researched book by a a new author who knows her subjects intimately. It is a moving, thoughtful and entertaining account of a friendship between a bohemian art student - Rex Whistler - and a sharp-witted, snobbish and comical spinster during the twenties and thirties amid the shadows of the looming war. The convention-defying friendship is enthralling.
