Summary: Not Her Best!
Comment: I have been an avid Daphne du Maurier fan for 30 years. I had never read this book until a couple of weeks ago. I found it very disappointing and boring. Her books usually have that "du Maurier" feel to them, but not so in this case. She was a brilliant writer but this did not grab me at all. Her last novel.

Summary: a good summer read
Comment: This book has been sitting in my basement for quite, and has always intrigued me because of its plot, which is that the United States and the UK have merged because of some international crisis, which unfortunately the book never really explains. Written during the height of the Cold War, the book is strong on British nationalism and anti-Americanism. That's not my thing, but the characters are quite good. The old woman who runs the family that the book is set around is quite colorful, and she manages to carry out her own little war against the "enemy" American troops that have occupied her little hamlet. It's a good read. Check it out if you have time.
