Mühlstein
Rosamunde macht sich nicht viel aus der Liebe. Die wohl einzige Jungfrau im London der Swinging Sixties hätte zwar mehr als genug Gelegenheiten für heiße Affären, sitzt aber lieber über den Büchern. Und ausgerechnet sie wird nach einem mäßigen One-Night-Stand schwanger. Im ersten Schreck versucht sie die Angelegenheit mit Gin und einem heißen Bad zu beenden. Doch alles geht schief, und der Abend endet in einem großen Besäufnis. Rosamunde schafft es nicht, sich gegen das Kind zu entscheiden. Na gut, dann zieht sie es eben allein auf. Auch wenn das Leben als ledige Mutter wohl nicht einfach werden wird. Nicht in ihren kühnsten Träumen hätte sie für möglich gehalten, sich so rückhaltlos in ihre kleine Tochter zu verlieben. Als diese lebensbedrohlich erkrankt, lernt die eher hasenfüßige Rosamunde sich von einer komplett anderen Seite kennen.

Margaret Drabble on the Romantics
'Thames & Hudson's new, affordable, covetable 'Pocket Perspectives': beautifully illustrated essays by canonical writers' Financial Times A highly acclaimed exploration of the way in which the landscape has both influenced and been represented in British Romantic literature. Margaret Drabble on the Romantics presents an image of Britain as seen through the eyes of some of its most celebrated authors. Many of the Romantics, as well as their successors, are closely associated with particular landscapes - the Wordsworths with the Lake District, Walter Scott with the Scottish Borders, the Brontë sisters with West Yorkshire. Margaret Drabble deepens our understanding of this connection, unpacking the Romantics' fascination with all varieties of rural landscape, from roaring seas to tranquil villages, while also exploring their writing's subtler associations. Herself a star in the literary firmament, Drabble illuminates how this love of place fashioned some of the Romantics' greatest works. She considers the resonances of myth and legend, art and earlier literature that the Romantics found in places such as North Wales and Cornwall and investigates how their writing has, in turn, shaped our visual attitudes, taste in landscape and relation to nature.
