Enchanting April. Elizabeth's Garden

Where to run from problems, bad weather, boredom, and a foul mood? Of course, to sunny Italy, with its azure sea, wonderful flowers, golden oranges, and cloudless sky! Thus prepares to gather at the San Salvatore castle, near Genoa, an... eccentric company consisting of the thrifty and endlessly devoted to her husband Lotty, the charity-obsessed and religious wife of a fashionable writer Rose, the stunning Caroline choking on intrusive male attention, and the improbably rich, arrogant, and stingy widow Mrs. Fisher. What does such an interesting group of ladies, suddenly found on the same territory, promise? Humor, humor, and once again humor!.. This collection also includes Arnim's debut work – the novella Elizabeth's Garden.
