    Content: "1967. While London comes alive with the new youth revolution, the suburban Fischer family seems to belong to an older world of conventional stability: pretty, dutiful homemaker Phyllis is married to Roger, a devoted father with a career in the Foreign Office. Their children are Colette, a bookish teenager, and Hugh, the golden boy. But when the twenty-something son of an old friend pays the Fischers a visit one hot summer evening, and kisses Phyllis in the dark garden after dinner, something in her catches fire. Newly awake to the world, Phyllis makes a choice that defies all expectations of her as a wife and a mother. Nothing in these ordinary lives is so ordinary after all, it turns out, as the family's upheaval mirrors the dramatic transformation of the society around them. With scalpel-sharp insight, Tessa Hadley explores her characters' inner worlds, laying bare their fears and longings. Daring and sensual, Free Love is a compelling, irresistible exploration of romantic love, sexual freedom, and our hunger for more truth and meaning in our lives."

    Content: Over five novels and two collections of stories Tessa Hadley has earned a reputation as a fiction writer of remarkable gifts, and been compared with Elizabeth Bowen and Alice Munro. In her new novel three sisters and a brother meet up in their grandparents' old house for three long, hot summer weeks. The house is full of memories of their childhood and their past - their mother took them there when she left their father - but now they may have to sell it. And under the idyllic surface, there are tensions. Roland has come with his new wife and his sisters don't like her. Kasim, the twenty-year-old son of Alice's ex-boyfriend, makes plans to seduce Molly, Roland's teenage daughter. Fran's children uncover an ugly secret in a ruined cottage in the woods. Passion erupts where it's least expected, blasting the quiet self-possession of Harriet, the oldest sister. A way of life - bourgeois, literate, ritualised - winds down to its inevitable end. With uncanny precision and extraordinary sympathy, Tessa Hadley charts the squalls of lust and envy disrupting this ill-assorted house party, as well as the consolations of memory and affection, the beauty of the natural world, the shifting of history under the social surface. From the first page the reader is absorbed and enthralled, watching a superb craftsman at work --

    Content: In these short stories it's the ordinary things that turn out to be most extraordinary: the history of a length of fabric, say, and a forgotten jacket. Two sisters quarrel over an inheritance and a new baby; a child awake in the night explores the familiar rooms of her home, strange in the dark; a housekeeper caring for a helpless old man uncovers secrets from his past. The first steps into a turning point and a new life are made so easily and carelessly: the stories focus in on crucial moments of transition, often imperceptible to the protagonists. A girl accepts a lift in a car with some older boys, or a young woman reads the diaries she comes across when she's housesitting. Small acts have large consequences, and some of them reverberate across decades; things fantasised in private can reach out to affect other people, for better and worse. An older woman recovering from serious illness speaks to a lonely young man on a train; an old friend brings bad news to a dinner party; a schoolteacher in the throes of a painful affair in 1914 has mixed feelings about her pupils' suffragette-craze. The real things that happen to people, the accidents that befall them, are every bit as mysterious as their longings and their dreams

    Content: Seit dreißig Jahren sind sie befreundet, die stille Malerin Christine, ihr Mann Alex, der sich zum Dichter berufen fühlte und nun als Lehrer arbeitet, der erfolgreiche Kunsthandler Zachary und seine flamboyante Frau Lydia. Die vier führen in London ein gutbürgerliches Leben, parlieren über Kunst und Literatur, bekommen Kinder und fahren gemeinsam in die Ferien. Alles ist gut. Dann stirbt Zachary, vollkommen unerwartet. Lydia zieht zu Christine und Alex. Aber der Verlust des Freundes und Ehemanns schweißt die drei nicht enger zusammen. Die Vergangenheit holt sie ein, alte Wunden brechen auf. Haben sie die richtigen Entscheidungen getroffen? Trifft man die je? Was ist aus ihren Sehnsüchten, den Lebensentwürfen ihrer Jugend geworden? Und was ist eigentlich damals in Venedig geschehen? Tessa Hadley hat einen wunderbar elegischen Roman über die ganz normalen Irrtümer und Missverstandnisse des Lebens geschrieben, eine comedy of manners, in der die kleinen Gesten alles erzahlen, ein Buch, dessen Lebensklugheit und feiner Ironie man sich nicht entziehen kann.

Jetzt, in ihren Vierzigern und Fünfzigern, müssen sie entscheiden, ob sie das etwas in die Jahre gekommene Haus halten oder verkaufen sollen. Alice, gescheiterte Schauspielerin und unbelehrbare Romantikerin, bringt Kasim mit, den gerade erwachsenen Sohn ihres Ex- Partners, und Roland seine sechzehnjährige Tochter Molly, hübsch und unbedarft. Sie alle zieht das alte Anwesen in seinen Bann, längst überwunden geglaubte Spannungen lodern wieder auf, und neue erotische Verwicklungen bahnen sich an, das Schweigen wird gebrochen. Nach drei langen heißen Wochen geht auch dieser Sommer zu Ende - und es muss eine Entscheidung getroffen werden
