About this book
For years, Laura Willowes has been the agreeable unmarried aunt, useful to relatives and almost invisible within their household. In middle age, she unexpectedly claims a life of her own, moving alone to a quiet village in the Chiltern Hills. There, the countryside's strangeness and vitality awaken a freedom she has never allowed herself to imagine. Sharp, playful, and increasingly magical, this compact feminist classic turns domestic expectations inside out. Its witchy element grows naturally from Laura's ordinary life, making her search for autonomy feel both fantastical and emotionally true.
