Time ebbs and flows and characters come and go in this novel, set in the era of the Black Death, about a Benedictine convent of no great note. The nuns do their chores, seek to maintain and improve the fabric of their house and chapel, and struggle with each other and with themselves. The book that emerges is a picture of a world run by women but also a story-stirring, disturbing, witty, utterly entrancing-of a community. What is the life of a community and how does it support, or constrain, a real humanity? How do we live through it and it through us? These are among the deep questions that lie behind this rare triumph of the novelist's art. "One of the great British novels of the twentieth century: a narrative of extraordinary reach, power, and beauty." "Warner's style is delicate and arch…Though she teeters on the edge of satire, she lands instead…on poignancy."
