Críticas

Tremendously eloquent and astute... inhabiting the ground between Iris Murdoch and Brian Moore. --Irish News

Simply elegant... Janet McNeill ought to be better appreciated. --Irish Times

To find true parallels with McNeill s work one must look to... Barbara Pym, Anita Brookner and, more particularly, Elizabeth Taylor. --Fortnight

Reseña del editor

Discard the twisted past, not to try to analyse or excuse it, but simply to let it go, like a worn dress, and stepping into another to walk out a new woman. Mildred has died but her shadow still dominates the life of Laura, her younger sister. When George, her brother, returns Laura remembers her youthful failure to assert an independent life. Was it cowardice or self-sacrifice? In reclaiming her past can Laura begin to shape her present? Can Laura, at last, live without guilt? In portraying such private dramas Tea at Four O Clock is Janet McNeill s most perceptive novel of family life.
