Louisa Young: The Golden Hours

Celebrated novelist Louisa Young continues the story of one of the most beloved families in British literature in The Golden Hours, the brilliant new novel in Elizabeth Jane Howard’s iconic Cazalet Chronicles. The old guard – brothers Hugh, Edward, Rupert and their sister Rachel – look on as the England they knew and understood fades from view. Cousins Polly, Louise and Clary, all now on the brink of turning forty, are struggling to balance the demands of midlife with their personal desires – however secret. And then there are the young – a new generation growing up in a society on the cusp of real change. Louisa will be interviewed by broadcaster Georgina Godwin.

“Young possesses in abundance emotional conviction, pace and imaginative energy” ― The Guardian
