England, spring 1942. The largest armed conflict in human history is entering its fourth year. The sense of threat and scarcity is growing, and chaos is ceasing to be an escape from routine - it is becoming a way of life. The dark days of fighting provide a poignant backdrop to the everyday life of members of the privileged Cazalet family. Both in the quiet countryside in Sussex and in raid-stricken London, the separated Cazalets are beginning to realize that the war for survival resonates with the turmoil in their own lives.

Despite the difficult reality they face, something is beginning to awaken in the young Cazalets: the waiting time is coming to an end and the exciting world of adulthood is within reach. The iron Victorian morality is loosening its yoke, and under the guise of wartime effort and sacrifice, women can finally work and love with greater freedom. In the procession of births and losses, marriages and illegal relationships, the life of the Cazalet clan, their friends and loved ones, is played out, a life driven by dreams of peace after the war, of the moment when the family will be together again and the wounds will begin to heal, dreams of equality and justice that the new order will bring, fantasies of the day when all this confusion finally ends.

Elizabeth Jane Howard's monumental saga, one of the most ambitious and elaborate series of novels in 20th-century English literature, maintains the pace and intensity in the third volume that the author has accustomed us to in previous volumes. Ideal reading for lovers of historical fiction, epic family sagas, the Downton Abbey series, Julian Fellowes' novels and everything that is British to the core. Based on the novel, the six-episode series The Cazalet was produced by the BBC with a star-studded cast of actors.
