Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Two generations of Merediths farm the land running down to the River Dean. Robin Meredith bought his dairy farm just before he married Caro, his enigmatic Californian wife, while his father Harry is an arable farmer on the adjoining farm, working the land, with the help of his other son Joe, just as his father and grandfather had before him. But now Caro had died, as much of a mystery to the Meredith family as she was when she arrived twenty years ago, leaving Robin and the rest of the family to cope with the loss. With Caro gone, her adopted daughter Judy feels cut adrift, while for Joe the despair at her death is far deeper than the family suspects. And into the midst of this unhappy family comes Zoe, Judy's London friend, an outsider with her strange townie appearance, independent spirit and disturbing directness. Everyone underestimates Zoe's power as a catalyst for change as the realities behind the seeming idyll of a rural community become ever clearer. Synopsis:Set in the heart of English farmland, this novel portrays a family at a tragic crossroads. Caro's death causes each member of the family to feel vulnerable to time and change, but they all underestimate Zoe's power as a catalyst for a transformation. Synopsis:One of Trollope's more powerful novels, "Next of Kin" is centred around a farming family and the tragedy that has recently befallen them. Then into their lives comes Zoe, an outsider and townie, whose power as a catalyst for change is underestimated by everyone. Joanna Trollope's more recent titles include "The Best of Friends, The Choir" and "A Village Affair". What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
