Edward Pierson is the widowed vicar of a London church. He has two daughters, Eve and Noel, who is 17. In essence, the novel follows the battle between Edward’s faith and the lack of faith of his daughters following a seemingly disastrous mistake made by Noel. The novel is set during the first World War and explores their lives and their relationships with various other characters in a time of great stress when lives are profoundly changed by the devastating effects of the war.

After The Great War there was a great introspection. This novel does an excellent job of illustrating the civilian side of both the confusion and clarity that war can inflict upon a nation. Additionally, the concepts of religion versus evolution are well explored. An excellent choice for reading, read by the best, Simon Evers. Thank you, for applying your talents to this beautiful work by Galsworthy.
