Heavily abridged
Not sure why it needed to be abridged and in particular a storyline involving Calypso from the Chamomile Lawn was hacked out. Rather disappointed.

revisiting Mary Wesley
after a great number of years is sheer lighthearted delight. Anna Massey was wonderful as the narrator which doubled the book's charm

A favourite Book destroyed.
This unusual brilliant story has unfortunately been abridged soo much
and to my deep annoyance parts of the story altered by words not in the original book.
What a cheek !
I’ve read the book many times , was cross to hear added parts that are definitely not Mary Wesley’s story .
Don’t wast your money ,
The reader , Anna Massey is always very good .
But this particular story needs all the words , or it’s totally meaningless.
Not recommended.
