A review by readingseasonally
The Enchanted April by Elizabeth von Arnim

5.0

First published a century ago and still so imaginable and entertaining. Four women spend their nest eggs 'the fruit of her careful denials' on renting a property in Portofino. I loved reading about their interactions and the hierarchy between them. I was less keen when the husbands re-emerged but overall think it's a triumph of a book.
