On the surface, this a novel about four women who are (almost) strangers renting a castle in Italy for a month. Can these four very different women come together at the villa, find healing in the tranquil beauty of their surroundings, and rediscover hope and love? Will their husbands and friends who join them there also fall under the spell of San Salvatore?

There, alongside the lapping of the Mediterranean, the women's spirits begin to shift, and quite unexpected changes take place.WWI has ended, and in the England of 1922, everyday life is slowly settling back to normal. In The Enchanted April, the author depicts a particular social milieu (none of the four women are employed or completely financially independent) and presents a gently mocking view of their petty squabbles over sitting rooms, seating arrangements and personal space when they finally arrive at San Salvatore. The Enchanted April, Elizabeth von Arnim's brilliant, irrepressible novella, tells the tale of four very different women who, on answering an advertisement in The Times, find themselves far away from the drizzle of London and instead in the warmth of an Italian sun.
