The story of a remarkable literary partnership written and narrated by DENYS HAWTHORNE with Eithne Dunne as E. CE. Somerville and Kate Binchy as ' Martin Ross Edith (Enone Somerville and ' Martin Ross ' ( the pen name of VIOLET MARTIN) were cousins, born in the middle of the last century into the twilight world of the Irish Ascendancy - a world of hunting, tennis parties, amateur theatricals, of local landed gentry and decaying country houses.
They began to write books as a joke but quickly developed into serious and substantial artists, producing together several works now recognised as classics such as The Real Charlotte and Some Experiences of an Irish RM.
