A beautifully nostalgic childhood memoir of Britain in the late 1890s, written by the eminent author Angela Thirkell.
She recalls in rich detail, and with a delightful sense of humour, the three houses which were seminal to her youth.

The third of the three houses is the country home of the author's grandfather, the artist Edward Burne-Jones. It is furnished with Morris wallpaper, Morris chintzes and carpets and a selection of beastly uncomfortable pre-Raphaelite chairs.
