The Cazalet Family Chronicle. Book 1. The Carefree Years
9.99 €
The first novel of Elizabeth Jane Howard's iconic tetralogy "The Cazalet Family Chronicle". The saga covers a difficult period of the XX century - the anxious anticipation of the Second World War, its terrible events and painful consequences. The scale of the dramas that unfold in the house of British aristocrats, no less than historical tragedies. "Chronicle of the Cazalet family" was highly appreciated by critics, including for the deep psychologism of the characters, often experiencing alienation from each other and not finding their place in society. The saga was screened and became the basis for radio plays on the BBC. The first four novels of the saga were published in Britain between 1990 and 1995. The fifth book in the series was published in the fall of 2013. The year is 1937, the storm clouds of war still on the distant horizon. Hugh, Edward and Rupert Cazaletes, along with their wives, children and servants, travel to the family estate where they plan to spend the perfect summer. Petty worries and irreparable sorrows, simple joys, shameful secrets and unsettling premonitions - what do you get when you bring it all together under one roof? A tragicomedy of life with a British accent.
