Written in the 1920s, it was a slow but beautiful read for me. It's starts with 2 women renting a place in Italy and finding 2 others to share with them. The setting starts its magic and is healing for the women. Grief ridden for some their relationships intertwined. The men in the book were weak and unlikeable.
