ENCHANTED APRIL

by Barber, Matthew

Feeling lost in the shadows of marriage and forgotten in the rush of 1920s post-war society, two London housewives pool their savings to rent a villa in Italy for a ladies-only holiday away, reluctantly recruiting a pair of difficult upper-class women to share the cost and the experience.  Together under the Mediterranean sun, the four women clash — and then begin to bond and bloom — until men once again upset the balance.
