The lark rose in the brilliant air, higher, higher on its spun-glass spiral of song, knowing nothing of peace or war, accepting joyously the bounty of another day. A hot summer's day in 1946. The English village of Wealding is no longer troubled by distant sirens, yet the rustling coils of barbed wire are a reminder that something, some quality of life, has evaporated. Together again after years of separation, Laura and Stephen Marshall and their daughter Victoria must find their way in an altered world. Their rambling garden refuses to be tamed, the house seems perceptibly to crumble. Hour by hour, as the glorious weather holds, it seems a perfectly ordinary day. And yet, as evening falls, something will have changed forever . . . Exquisitely written and achingly poignant, One Fine Day is an unforgettable portrait of world on the brink of change - perfect for fans of Small Pleasures and A Month in the Country 'As profound as Katherine Mansfield, restrained as Jane Austen, sharp as Dorothy Parker' Independent
