Seller's Description:
Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -This is a vintage edition and will be subject to the effects of aging >>The New Rector (1994) (The first book in the Tales from Turnham Malpas series) Publisher`s Weekly The small gossipy English village of Turnham Malpas is the real protagonist of this entertaining first novel about life among the mannered self-conscious British from Easter to Christmas of one year. New to town is handsome married pastor Peter Harris who soon will react to a rather selfish suicide figure out who pulled some nasty pranks on the town spinster and solve the murder of a local schoolteacher. The narrative is filled with drama though the most dramatic writing has less to do with homicide than with the neurosis surrounding so-called ``proper`` behaviour. Isn`t Suzy Meadows`s dress wonder the townspeople a bit tight and flashy for a mourning widow? And who will occupy the murdered woman`s house now that it`s vacant? With understanding and sympathy English writer Shaw captures the tradition-bound rural sensibility of people who ordinarily mean well but who have trouble communicating with each other. Sending up the British stereotypes (the repressed spinster the noble gardener) that Americans often relish she seems to be writing with Yankee Anglophiles in mind. Talk of the Village (1995) (The second book in the Tales from Turnham Malpas series) Turnham Malpas is alive with gossip. Does pushy newcomer Venetia have her eye on Peter the handsome Rector? And is Jeremy her husband really making a success of the new health club? Whispers are even afflicting older inhabitants and soon the village which the Rector united is divided again. -> the publisher of this HARDBACK book is BCA The date of this copy is 1997 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Turnham Malpas Series.
