The Rev. Sidney Challoner is a pious old-fashioned man who wants only the best for his children. But times are changing – and his children’s destinies belong to a modern age more daring than Challoner’s outlook can encompass. Michael is less interested in Greek iambics than in pursuing his gift as a pianist. Meanwhile, his sister Helen has fallen in love with Lord Yorkshire, whose atheist views are nothing short of heretical in the eyes of her devout father.
First published in 1904, E.F. Benson’s classic Edwardian coming-of-age story is a heartfelt study in generational conflict – and reconciliation.
