Description

Pretty, unworldly Sophia is twenty-one and hastily married to Charles, a young painter. An artist’s model with an eccentric collection of pets, she is ill-equipped to cope with 1930s bohemian London, where poverty, babies (however much loved) and husband conspire to torture her.

Hoping to add some spice to her life, Sophia takes up with Peregrine, a dismal, ageing critic, but comes to regret her marriage and her affair alike. However, virtue is more than its own reward, for repetance brings an abrupt end to the cycle of unsold pictures, unpaid bills and unwashed dishes.
