Love: A Virago Modern Classic (Virago Modern Classics #395)
by Elizabeth von ArnimA gentle romance begins innocently enough in the stalls of a London theatre where Catherine is enjoying her ninth and Christopher his thirty-sixth visit to the same play.He is a magnificent young man with flame-coloured hair.

The engaging humour of this autobiographical novel blunts the bitter edge of irony in the hypocrisy of 1920s society.
