An Englishwoman at a crossroads in her life takes an unexpected path in this ?teasingly clever new novel? by the author of The Millstone. Candida Wilton?a woman recently betrayed, rejected, divorced, and alienated from her three grown daughters?moves from a beautiful Georgian house in lovely Suffolk to a two-room walk-up flat in a run-down building in central London. The move, however, is not a financial necessity. She herself wonders if she?s putting herself through a survival test?or perhaps a punishment. How will Candida adjust to this shabby, menacing, but curiously appealing city? What can happen, at her age, to change her life? There is a relationship with a computer to which she now confides her past and her present. An adult-ed class on Virgil offers friendships of sorts with other women?widows, divorced, never married, women straddled between generations. And then comes Candida's surprise inheritance, and the surprising things she chooses to do with it?
